Spreading Easter Joy to Local Children with Chestnut Tree House

This Easter, we’re excited to be supporting an incredibly special cause that’s close to home and close to our hearts—Chestnut Tree House.

For those who may not be familiar with Chestnut Tree House, it is a remarkable children’s hospice based near Arundel. It provides essential care and support to children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families. Their work is nothing short of inspiring.

On 18th April 2025, they’ll be hosting an Easter Extravaganza—a joyful day dedicated to bringing smiles to the children in their care and their siblings. The idea is simple but powerful: to make sure every child feels remembered, valued, and celebrated during what can be a very difficult time.

The Fresh Egg team is helping with two types of donations:

  • Soft Easter-themed toys (cuddly bunnies, chicks, lambs) for the children under hospice care
  • Easter eggs for their siblings, who are often navigating a challenging and emotional path alongside their brothers or sisters

We’ll be delivering the gifts to Chestnut Tree House just in time for their Easter celebration.

Some of the Easter treats for Chestnut Tree House

“Supporting charities is something very important to us at Fresh Egg, and it is really special if we can get behind something as a collective group. I reached out to Chestnut Tree House to ask how we could support them this year and our first opportunity is at Easter. Jack at Chestnut Tree House, who is their Activities Team Leader said that any donations we could collect for their Easter event, would go a long way to making the day memorable for their residents, siblings and families. We’re proud to stand behind such an incredible charity and hope our collection brings a little light to the children and their loved ones.”
