Get your Santa suit ready – The Derby Santa Run is back!
Kick off the festive season and join us on Sunday 30th November at Markeaton Park for the popular Derby Santa Run.
No running experience necessary! Whether you want to run, jog, dance or stroll, our 5k course is perfect for everyone!
Enjoy festive tunes from our brass band, snap photos and explore the seasonal stalls packed with family-friendly fun.
Cost is £15 with every ticket including:
- Entry to The Derby Santa Run 2025
- FREE santa suit and beard
- FREE finisher’s medal (kindly sponsored by TrentBarton)
- MEET fellow supporters and trustees of the DCHC
- An opportunity to meet Lambie, (the Derby & Burton Hospitals Charity Mascot)
Run, jog or walk 5km – it’s all about festive fun whilst raising funds for the Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre!
When you register to sign up for the run, you’ll be asked which charity you want to support – please choose Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre so more children from Derby & Derbyshire can enjoy a life-changing seaside holiday.

Did you know that over 1 in 5 Derbyshire children now live in poverty?
We know their parents have to chose between essentials and luxuries like a holiday or days out. We can stand in this gap for those children and families and provide the gift of a warm bed, proper meals, and time to just be a child and have some fun - building friendships and confidence.
This December, you’ll have the chance to help us provide that — and your gift could be DOUBLED.
More soon. 💛

📢 It's that time again when we introduce you to a member of our team! 📢
This week, it's the turn our wonderful and first ever junior ambassador, Corey Dobson, who raised £2,000 for us after being a guest and discovering we were pausing our operations this year.
❓Why did you get involved with the DCHC?
I wanted to get involved because I heard on the news they were closing for fundraising and I wanted to help. I want other children to have the chance to be able to go and have the same amazing experience that I have at the holiday centre.
❓What does your role involve?
As junior ambassador I attend as many local events as I can. I am still talking about the holiday centre and keep telling people about it. I have signed up with mum to do the 5k Santa run and will be attending the Spondon light switch on. I want to do a tombola and more cake sales too but mum says I have to wait until next year!
❓Best moments?
Making new friends and the Christmas 2023 pantomime was intriguing!
❓Best thing about Skegness?
Best thing has to be the holiday centre and the beach is alright too.
❓Coast or countryside?
The seaside but I did enjoy exploring the Peak District and going to see some waterfalls earlier this year.
