Oakham All Saints Scout Group will be raising funds this festive period by selling and delivering high quality Christmas trees around Rutland. 

The scout group has partnered with one of the UK's leading Christmas Tree growers to ensure trees are freshly cut, high quality and will last until the big day. 

Trees cost between £45 and £65 depending on the size and will be delivered on Saturday 30th November with free delivery in Rutland (LE15 and PE9 postcodes). There is also an option to add Tree Recycling where they will pick up your tree on Saturday 11th January and take it away to be properly recycled.

All Saints Scout Group are also on the lookout for adults that are interested in getting involved, either with the young people or behind the scenes. Groups like this are the real heart of the community and the opportunity to volunteer is a great way to get involved and give back to the community.  

In the past, customers have left positive reviews about their service, with one saying: "What a fabulous tree – the best I've ever had! It looked absolutely beautiful right up until I took it down. And the service of collection and delivery is what really made a difference... I will be recommending this service to everyone and will be coming back to you next year."

Tree orders close on Thursday 21st November at the latest but stock is already running low so orders may close early if there is high demand. Ordering, recycling and more information is all available through their website.
