A BIG Christmas tree recycling bonanza has dropped more than £21,000 into the coffers of Lancaster and South Lakeland’s St John’s Hospice.
A mammoth collection saw more than 30 teams working around Ambleside, Sedbergh and Garstang and they collected around 2,100 discarded firs, most of which were transformed into woodchip to power drying boilers at Lupton-based wood fuel specialists Barden Biomass.
Managing director Will Barden said the company was delighted to be able to help again with such a worthwhile cause.
