Providing Scotland with great Christmas Trees and supporting a great cause
7 November 2009
This Christmas the young people of Kibble Education and Care Centre will be selling Caring Christmas Trees to raise funds for the Accord Hospice in Paisley. It's really simple they will sell good quality, needle-last Christmas trees, for around the same price as everywhere else, and the money they raise goes to the Hospice.
Last Christmas they raised 900 in aid of Accord Hospice by selling Caring Christmas Trees and the young people at Kibble thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
We hope you will buy your tree for Christmas 2009 from them and encourage your friends to do the same.
To order your tree please order online at www.caringchristmastree.com/paisley. For further information contact: Karen Gilligan - [email protected] (0141 842 8023)
