Get everyone together and kick off your festive activities with us!

Santa Dash is BACK!

Start your festive activities with The Hospice of St Francis by taking part in our Santa Dash! Join the hundreds of people taking to the streets of Hemel Hempstead dressed in their festive gear, to help raise money for local people with terminal illnesses.

You can run, walk or dance your way through the family festive fun run route from Riverside Shopping Centre, the centre of Hemel Hempstead, up through the historic Old Town, into Gadebridge Park and back again. Santa Dash is not timed – you can take as quick or as slow as you like, as long as you have fun we don’t mind!

This event is great for all the family, including the dog, so gather everyone together and kick off your festive activities with us.

Early bird entry fees are £10 for adults, £5 for children or you can enter the whole family (2 adults and 2 children) for £26. Under 2’s and dogs go free.

Your entry fee includes a medal, a mince pie plus a free short drink at Starbucks, what is not to love! We’d love to see your best Christmas frocks. Free parking is also available for the first 100 bookings.

Whilst we don’t ask for a minimum amount of sponsorship, we would encourage you to raise as much as possible for such a worthy cause. We need your help to make sure our special care is always there for people who need it.

Tell all your friends and family about this event. There are no age restrictions – anyone can take part. We also welcome non-participants to support the Dash and enjoy the festive atmosphere and fun-filled activities taking place in the Town Centre.

So sign up today, welcome back Santa Dash with us and help us raise much needed funds for The Hospice of St Francis.
