A busy day for our #volunteers working with our friends @cransleyhospice collecting #christmastrees for recycling. The weather might have been wet, but it didn’t dampen our enthusiasm.

Over #christmas we got a request to support a major sporting event in the county: the annual Wild & Woolly #motocross race.

The wet weather left the parking a bit muddy and slippery, so we were pleased to help. Thank you to everyone for their patience and kind donations.

And thank you to our #volunteers for giving up their #boxingday at short notice.
