The festive season is fast approaching, and Trees of Remembrance are popping up across the region to raise much needed funds for Nelson Tasman Hospice.
The annual tradition is a way to remember a loved one by leaving a message on a tree. This year’s stands will be in Richmond Mall and Nelson New World from 5 - 7 December, outside Hurst and Taylor in Stoke on 5 December, New World Stoke from 6 - 7 December, Farmers in Richmond and Nelson until 24 December and Nelson Airport on 6 December.
This is the second year the airport has got behind the campaign, with local businesses coming together to decorate and sponsor a tree. The public can vote for their favourite tree and Dame Suzie Moncrieff will be selecting the overall winner.
You can make a cash donation at any of the stands or donate through the ‘tap and donate’ machines.
