Annemarie Huigen said: "As a volunteer at St Peter's I am really pleased that local businesses and societies have taken the time to decorate the trees.
"A small £5 donation has been collected per tree which will help with the ongoing fundraising at St Peter's.
"The trees will be up till the Thursday, January 2."
The church's exterior has also been given a festive makeover with three lights tunnels thanks to David Bachelor, John Vanderdol and Sandwich Lights committee.
