Want to get rid of your Christmas cards but feel bad about all the waste? Now you don’t need to.
The environmental group Woodland Trust is encouraging the nation to recycle their Christmas cards instead of chucking them into the bin.
From 2 to 31 January, people can take their cards to bins in participating WH Smith, Tesco, TK Maxx and Marks and Spencer stores.
The Woodland Trust will recycle them and use the proceeds to plant thousands of new trees across five UK sites.
They are: Heartwood Forest just north of St Albans in Hertfordshire, Low Burnhall near Durham, Cefn Ila near Usk in Wales, Milton near Callander, and Burntollet Wood near Londonderry in Northern Ireland.
