Hundreds of Santas will descend onto Ipswich again this year to raise money for charity.
The East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) Ipswich Santa Run will take place on December 13 with enthusiastic fundraisers taking on a course around the town centre.
The fun event is not a race – entrants can run, jog or walk around the route which is suitable for all members of the family.
Kesha Allen, EACH events intern, said: “We are excited to host this year’s Santa Run in the heart of the town centre along a new route.
“Kay Fletcher will be joining us again to warm up our excited runners.
“This is a great, well-established event where EACH supporters continue to raise funds to support families and care for children and young people with life threatening conditions across East Anglia.
“This really is a fun even for all the family so come and join in on the fun.”
