Recycle your Christmas tree
When the time comes to take down the Christmas decorations, recycling your tree could benefit war veterans and their families.
Notts County Council is working in partnership with Veolia Environmental Services to encourage people to recycle their trees to help raise cash for the Royal British Legion.
For every 50 tonnes of Christmas trees sent for recycling, Veolia will donate £100 to the RBL.

“I ask all residents to recycle their tree to help make a real difference.”
