Festive Favourite Returns
People of all ages are invited to take part in the popular Santa Fun Run on Sunday 2 December at Ward Jackson Park, in aid of Alice House Hospice.
The fun begins at 10am with music and entertainment from Higham Disco, a children’s choir, stalls and a tombola. The run (or walk) comprises one lap of the park and commences at 11am from The Place in the Park, who are kindly offering a mince pie to all runners.
“I’m really looking forward to the Santa Fun Run; it’s a lovely event and a great way for families and friends to get into the Christmas spirit. It’s always a real spectacle to see so many Santas running around the park together and the run is open to anyone who would like to take part.

The event is sponsored by O’Connor Roofing and Publicity Seekers and Hospice mascot Alice Mouse will also be taking part and will be wearing her festive outfit.

We would like to thank our generous event sponsors O’Connor Roofing Services and Publicity Seekers, which means that events costs are covered and all money raised can be used to support Hospice patients and their families.
Thanks also to Maria and her team at The Place in the Park for having us back each year.”
