Simply follow the link below and order your tree.

Go on, ‘needle’ your parents and push for a real tree this Christmas.

The Bethany Christian Trust is a registered Scottish charity based in Edinburgh. It was set up to relieve the suffering and meet the long-term needs of homeless and vulnerable people. The scheme, which has now been running for three years, sees proceeds from the sale of trees used to support Bethany’s Care Shelter over the winter months. The Care Shelter, which operates at different city centre church premises, provides food, a safe place to sleep and advice to rough sleepers in the capital.
