#BusinessMonday We had a great meeting today at Oldham Rugby Union Club with Josh from A Poplar Tree Company. Josh is chipping all our trees from the Christmas Tree Collections, it's a must see event! We would also like to thank Life for A Life, WillMow Reclamation and Howard's Domestics for their support in collecting all the trees. We really couldn't do what we do without support like this from our business community. To find out more, visit: https://lnkd.in/efabmGmb
