Treecycling is a volunteer-led campaign; it would not be possible without the support of a tree-mendous army of companies and individuals giving up their time each year.
Join the Treecyling team and make every moment matter for local people living with a terminal diagnosis.
Volunteer during collection weekend
Last Christmas, over 200 amazing volunteers collected over 5,600 trees from all over Birmingham! This year’s collection will be on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 January 2026, and we need as many volunteers as possible.
What we’d need from you:
-
- To be available from 8am to 3pm on either (or both) day
-
- To be able to drive a hired van, or accompany a driver and pick up trees from the roadside
-
- If you have a van or flat-bed truck of our own that you could use, that would be fantastic!
What you’ll get in return:
-
- A full briefing, including routes which show where to collect and drop off trees
-
- Refreshments on the day
-
- Protective clothing and equipment to use on the day
-
- A chance to meet others, have fun and make a difference to local hospice care!
Deliver leaflets
We also need people to help us spread the word and volunteer to deliver leaflets through letterboxes in your local area between mid-December and early January, and you’ll make a huge difference to how much we can raise.
