East Cheshire Hospice is hoping the public will let it keep donations made for the Christmas tree collection.
Refunds are available – or trees will be collected once lockdown eventually ends – but the Hospice hopes supporters will help ease its financial plight by not asking for donations to be returned.
However, it says it quite understands if people prefer a refund because trees cannot be collected on the weekend originally specified.
A Hospice statement said: “If you would like us to keep your kind donation towards the collection, you don’t need to do anything, and we thank you so much as this will make a real difference at this difficult time.
“If you would still like your tree to be collected on the re-arranged date, you don’t need to do anything, we will be in touch closer to the time with more information about this once a new date is safe and possible.
“If you would like a refund for your donation towards the Christmas tree collection campaign, please notify us by completing the form on our website.
“Please note, if we don’t hear from you to request a refund, your kind donation will be gratefully accepted and will make a real difference at this difficult time.
“Thank you for your continued support.”
