Donyngs helps local charities

Once again this year Donyngs played a big part in helping to raise funds in support of our nominated charity St Cathrine's Hospice.

Thanks go to John Elwood , club chairman and his team for making arrangements (arriving at 7.30am to carry them out) to make available our car park to be used as a depot where van loads of Christmas Trees were dropped off and shredded.  House holders book a collection on the JustGiving website for £2 then volunteers collect their trees and bring them to the club where they were shreded into valuable compost. In total this year 1300 trees were collected double last years total. Reigate & Redhill via Donyngs collected 240 trees - Who said money does\'nt grow on trees!

As a thank you JustGiving made a small donation to a charity the club named which was Renewed Hope, in Redhill. Therefore 2 local charities benefited from the clubs involvement.

Next year if you have a tree to dispose of perhaps you might consider the JustGiving option and help local charities.
