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 primary school and nursery aged children who want to make a difference in their community.
Whether you’d like to get your whole school involved or take part with just a few year groups or classes, you can make Rudolph Run work for you.
This festive season, why not join us 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 and their families.

- Make your own Rudolph antler crown – a fun, creative and more sustainable way to get ready for the run

- Special Rudolph Run videos to share with children – learn about the Hospice, get warmed up and receive a special thank you from Santa!
