Christmas cards

Every January The Woodland Trust teams up with Tesco and WHSmith to collect and recycle millions of Christmas cards.

  • Just take your Christmas cards along to WHSmith high street stores and Tesco Extra and Superstores.
  • The cards will be recycled into newspapers, power towels and writing paper.
  • The money raised goes to help the Woodland Trust to plant trees and maintain our woodlands. You really can turn your cards back into trees!
