Compton Care is offering a Christmas tree recycling service in Wolverhampton, encouraging households to donate a minimum of £20 for collection. The initiative, running from January 9 to 12, aims to recycle real Christmas trees into biofuel for farmers.

The charity provides free palliative and bereavement care in Wolverhampton and surrounding areas, costing around £14 million annually, with 60% funded by donations. Volunteers will collect the trees, with support from local businesses and the council for shredding. This community-driven effort promotes environmental recycling while supporting the hospice's services.
