Put some fun into your festive fundraising this Christmas by getting dressed up as Santa for local charity Prospect Hospice where you can choose from a series of fun festive challenges for you and your family to enjoy.
The charity has a variety of fun socially distance Santa challenges to choose from for spreading festive cheer across the community this December. What challenge will you choose?
Are you a sprinting Santa? The hospice will provide the suit and you plan the route, or you might prefer to be a snapping Santa and send them your festive photo to win an award. Are you up to the challenge of becoming a shopping Santa and wearing your suit while doing your weekly shop or for an extreme challenge you could become a hosp-ice bucket soaking Santa for the charity.
Amy Francombe, events and community manager at Prospect Hospice said: “We may not be able to gather together as we would like at the moment but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a bit of fun. It would be great to get as many local people involved as we can in our socially distanced Santa’s challenges, especially as our festive fun events would be helping to raise money for us to continue caring for our patients and their families at the most difficult time of their lives.”
For only £10 per adult and £5 per child, the charity will provide you with your Santa suit to wear while taking part in one of their festive fun challenges, or you can choose your own Santa challenge.
Sign up today and join in the fun and let Prospect Hospice know the craziest thing you have done wearing your Santa suit.
