Hide AdSam said: “This year, I’m hoping to raise over £1,000. I am a registered charity worker and have chosen the NSPCC because my grandmother used to be a very active member, raising thousands of pounds for them during her life.
“She held a senior position from the 1980s to 2000s and this charity is very close to my heart. It was only natural that I chose this charity.”
The Christmas tree business will also be operating from The Locomotive pub in Littlehampton for the first time.
Sam said: “North Star Pines sells premium grade Christmas trees, 3ft to 10ft. We’re a small family business and each year we give ten per cent of our takings to the NSPCC. So far, we have raised £1,013 for the charity, which we donate every Christmas Eve.”
