Santas on the Run Plym Valley Railway 2025

Children's Hospice South West

All aboard the Lord Oliver Brown steam locomotive for this Santa run with a difference. Don your festive fancy dress, sit back and enjoy Christmas entertainment as you are transported to the start line of our sponsored 3k. Make special memories this Christmas while raising vital funds for families supported by our 3 hospices, including Little Harbour. We ask each participant to commit to raise £30 as an individual or £86 as a family.
