The trees are scheduled to be delivered to the following locations: – St John Burlington Methodists, Emmanuel Church, Our Lady & St Peter Catholic Church, Sewerby Methodists, St Michael’s at Bempton and The Priory Church.
Care and residential homes: – White Rose Lodge, The Waynes, Foresters Lodge, Mallard Court, Red House, Oak Tree Lodge, Belgrave Court, Rosegarth Residential Home, Bridlington Lodge, Alderson House, The Old Rectory, Bempton, Kirkgate House and Stubblefields House.
