Santa Fun Run!
7 December 2025
Simply choose whether you feel like dashing, jogging, or strolling, either the 1km or 5km route and enjoy the holiday spirit at your own pace.
Gather your friends and family for a merry morning of Christmas cheer while supporting your local hospice. You’ll get a FREE Santa suit to wear on the day, and when you cross the finish line, you’ll be awarded a Santa-themed medal and a delicious mince pie!
Our routes are family-friendly and accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs. Just keep in mind the start and finish line are on a field that may get muddy – depending on the weather. Dogs on leads are more than welcome to join in on the fun too, and there’s even a prize for the best-dressed festive furry friend!
