A Christmas Tree is just for Christmas, but recycling your tree via our collection service could help us provide care to those affected by life-limiting illness throughout 2026.

St Peter & St James Hospice provide expert care to people living with a life-limiting illness in our community, whether they are a patient, carer, family or friend. Our community includes Burgess Hill, Haywards Heath, Lewes, Uckfield and everywhere in between. We support people to live and die well, according to what matters most to them, with the best possible care, in the right place at the right time. Our workforce is committed to excellence in all they do.

We will be collecting real Christmas trees on Friday 9th and Saturday 10th of January 2026. The trees will then be locally chipped and recycled. If you would like your tree collected, please visit https://justhelping.org.uk to book and donate. Registration will close on Monday the 5th January 2026 at 23:59.

 Agatha Appleton and the Peril of the Pyramids Poster

Agatha Appleton and the Peril of the Pyramids

19.00 - 22.00

30 January 2026

The Queen's Hall, High Street, Cuckfield

It’s the early 1930s and librarian Agatha Appleton finds herself embroiled in a hilarious Egyptian adventure that will test her courage, her wits, and her heart. Can our hero outsmart her enemies and uncover the mysteries of the ancient world? Or will she fall victim to the deadly traps and curses that guard the Mummy’s tomb? From the team that gave you ‘Around The World in 80 Days’ and ‘Sherlock Holmes and The Music Hall Mystery’ comes a good old-fashioned slice of Archaeological adventure heavily laced with our trademark silliness.
