It's never too early to talk about Christmas trees!
Yesterday, we held our summer get-together with some of our volunteers. The Christmas decs were out plus the festive tunes were on - too hot for Santa suits!
Ty to Myton Hospices for hosting and to the Rapid Relief Team for the amazing food!
Cheers to our friends Mark and Greg at Purity Brewing who helped us collect trees this year to raise funds for The Myton Hospices and @passthesmile.bsky.social
Based on a beautiful farm in the Warwickshire countryside, Purity brew a range of fantastic beers, and we raise a glass to them in thanks 🍻

Can you help by sponsoring a van?
For our collection this year, we need to hire extra vans. Can you or your business help us cover the van hire and fuel costs by sponsoring a van, so we can raise even more money for The Myton Hospices and @passthesmile.bsky.social
Email us covxmastrees@gmail.com

The best way to be eco-friendly at Christmas is to choose a real Christmas tree that can be replanted or recycled.
Your donation to have your tree recycled goes to Myton Hospices & @passthesmile.bsky.social so you are helping the environment & helping local charities too 💚♻️🌲
