It’s that time of year again when we start thinking about decorating the buildings ready for the festive season. We use traditional greenery for many of the houses and shops so we are appealing for your help.
Do you have rampant ivy or holly that needs pruning? Do you have excess Christmas/ fir tree cuttings? Or do you have other evergreen materials you can spare?
If you have any of the above we would be grateful for donations of greenery. The Santa Hunts and ‘Christmas in the Home’ start on Saturday 23 November this year so we will start preparing key buildings from Monday 18 November and continue the following week. We may also need additional greenery in December, to refresh the buildings.
If you can bring in any materials you can deposit them outside the staff Guide Hut and the Collections team will collect them.
During the festive period, once buildings are decorated, if you are looking for greenery to refresh your building we will store surplus greenery on the first floor of the Cast iron House.
If you have any questions about decorating the buildings for Christmas you speak to the collections team or email [email protected]
Thank you.
