Christmas Tree Collection 2027
We’re delighted to be partnering with Credera once again as part of the Just Helping Christmas Tree Collection campaign.
After a fantastic first year that raised £2,500 for Children North East, we’re back for year two and aiming to make an even bigger impact. This January, our goal is to collect 250 Christmas trees and double the amount raised, helping us support even more children, young people and families across the North East.
By registering your tree for collection, you’ll not only save yourself a trip to the recycling centre, you’ll also help raise vital funds for local babies, children and families who need our support.
What is the Christmas Tree Collection?
The Christmas Tree Collection is part of a nationwide initiative led by Just Helping, a charity that brings together businesses, charities and volunteers to make a difference in their local communities.
Our team of volunteers will collect your real Christmas tree from your doorstep and ensure it’s responsibly recycled, all in exchange for a donation to Children North East.
It’s a simple way to dispose of your tree after Christmas while supporting a great cause.

- £35 could provide a counselling session for a child who has experienced abuse.
- £21 could help a child and their family attend a session focused on cooking and enjoying a nutritious hot meal together.
- £80 could provide a year of monthly peer support sessions for a neurodiverse young person.
Every pound donated helps create brighter futures, providing support, hope and opportunities for children and families across the North East.
