The Doncaster Santa Dash is being hosted by Curly’s Athletes this year – and all of the slots have been filled.

You can catch 250 Santas at 11am on Saturday, December 7, when they start off on a mile dash around Sandall Park in Doncaster.

The route will keep them close to the pond.

So far £1,200 raised from the event is going to a chosen charity.

The event was previously organised by Friends of Sandall Park, but after one of their main organisers suffered from a stroke Curly’s stepped in to help.

Curly’s is said to keep the event “much the same” as it has been for the last ten years.

The event takes place on tarmac paths so is wheelchair and pushchair friendly.
