Record breaking Result for Christmas Tree Festival

This year's 25th Bedford Christmas Tree Festival has raised an incredible £31,000 - our HIGHEST amount EVER! This beats our previous record of £24,000 (2023) and brings our 25-year total to over £280,000!


 What this means:

  • For Bedford Hospital Charity & Friends: £15,500 towards upgrading the Stabilisation and Treatment Room on Riverbank Ward - where seriously ill children, including cancer patients, receive urgent care when they arrive at hospital. Bringing this vital space to modern-day standards, ensuring every young patient gets the best possible start to their treatment.

  • For St Paul's Church, Bedford: £15,500 towards preserving one of Bedford's finest Grade 1 listed buildings and funding our ministry of pastoral care and outreach to one of the most deprived parishes in the Diocese.


 What made this possible:

  • 70+ creatively decorated trees

  • 1,400+ talented performers

  • 300+ dedicated volunteers

  • Thousands of generous visitors

  • Sold out Fizz at the Festival event and Festival Concert

  • Incredible sponsors and supporters


To everyone who visited, volunteered, performed, decorated, bought raffle tickets, or supported in any way - this is YOUR achievement. Thank you!
