You're never too young to make a difference and to help people who need it, and our Rudolph Run is a festive fundraising event especially for school and nursery aged children who want to make a difference in their community.
This festive season, why not join our Rudolph Run and help to bring some Christmas joy to the some of the hundreds of families supported by your local hospice?
Whether your little reindeers are prancing around the playground, dashing through PE, or strolling in a festive fancy dress parade, the Rudolph Run is all about fun and festive fundraising and having a great time while helping local people who are living with a terminal illness, or facing death.
What's included?:
- Rudolph noses and antlers for every child
- Santa suits for a teacher or staff member (if you sign up before 19 September)
- Sponsor forms (suggested £1 per child)
- We'll come along to your school assembly and help to spread the word
- A thank-you certificate for your school or nursery, for taking part
- A cheque presentation photo opportunity after the event
What do you need to do?
To take part, all you need to do is register with us and then decide how your little Rudolphs will complete their sponsored run.
Signing up early is a great way to get organised before the Christmas chaos kicks in - and we’ll be on hand to help you prepare and to provide everything you'll need, from antlers to sponsor forms!
It’s a brilliant way to spread kindness, get everyone smiling, and kick off the Christmas holidays together.
How to join:
- Pick your date for your Rudolph Run anytime in December 2025
- Let us know how your little Rudolphs plan to run (in the playground, during PE, etc.)
- Register today and we’ll take care of the rest
- Your Rudolph Run pack will arrive two weeks before your chosen date, so please give us at least three weeks' notice to get everything ready.
