We’ve donated a lovely Christmas tree to a York Care Home
The team at Dean’s in York has donated a Christmas tree to a Care Home in York as part of our festive donations to community causes in areas around our centres.
We have donated 10 real and artificial trees to causes serving the communities around our sites at York, Tong, Tingley, Otley, Batley and Scarborough.
One of the beneficiaries was Haxby Hall Care Home in York, following a request made at Dean’s in York. Area Manager at the home, Emma Littlewood, was delighted with the gifted tree: “Haxby Hall is a new Care Home for Elderly Residents. We have 34 people living with us, and this could possibly be their last Christmas due to physical and mental health conditions. We want to ensure that our home is the most magical place for all residents, families and staff, so this tree will play a huge part in this.”
“Every year, we get lots of requests from charities and community groups for things to make Christmas magical, and we’re very happy to be able to make a difference by donating a Christmas tree to 10 of the most deserving causes,” said Paul Adams, manager of Tong Garden Centre.
Other beneficiaries include New Earswick Primary School, the Women’s and Newborn Unit at Bradford Royal Infirmary and Kirkwood Hospice.
