Dobbies has announced the four nursery groups and schools who are set to receive a free real Christmas tree from its Dunfermline store.

The free Christmas tree is part of Dobbies’ Not Your Average Community campaign, in partnership with sustainable tree grower Needlefresh.

Dobbies’ Dunfermline store will welcome Calaiswood School, Camdean Primary School and Nursery, Hill of Beath Primary School and Nursery and Lynburn Primary School to come along to choose a Nordmann Fir tree, making sure the children can experience the magic of Christmas.

 

Chloë Bell, Dobbies’ CSR and community communications executive, said: “Christmas marks a magical moment in our childhoods, and we’re thrilled to be bringing some festive cheer to young members in our communities this year.

"Needlefresh has made this campaign possible with their generous support, and we’d like to extend our thanks to George and his team for all their hard work. A huge thank you to our Dunfermline store for all its help and hard work supporting the local community.”

All of Dobbies’ Christmas trees are sustainably grown in environmentally managed fields across Scotland.  The growing team do everything from planting, pruning and harvesting by hand to reduce the impact on the surrounding environment.

George Hood, managing director at Needlefresh, said: “Our sustainable Nordmann Fir Christmas trees make a wonderful centrepiece to festive celebrations, and we’re excited to see how the kids bring this classic tree to life. It’s a pleasure to be supporting so many nurseries and schools across the country this year in partnership with Dobbies.”
