Get in the festive mood with Reindeer Dash

Home » News » Get in the festive mood with Reindeer Dash

Join us for some festive fun at The Bridges Shopping Centre on Sunday 8th December for an indoor 1k family fun run in partnership with Sunderland BID.

The Reindeer Dash is a great opportunity to get your family into the festive spirit to raise funds to help improve the lives of people within our community this Christmas and you can start your fundraising by using the sponsorship form or why not set up a JustGiving page and link it to the Foundation of Light?

Last year’s event was really enjoyable. It gives families the chance to do something festive and fun in the lead up to Christmas, whilst raising money for two worthwhile causes.

Jemma Dowson, Head of Events at Foundation of Light

Children’s entry (12 and under) costs £3.50 which includes a reindeer nose and antlers, plus a fantastic reindeer medal and free entry to The Bridges Santa Grotto.

For all you adults young at heart… you can join the fun too. Enter the run for £5.50 and receive your own reindeer nose and antlers, whilst knowing your donation will help us raise as much money as possible.

Proceeds from the event will be shared between Foundation of Light to raise valuable funds to support our award-winning programmes and Red Sky Ball which is an annual charity event which raises funds for Children’s Heart Fund at the Freeman Hospital.

So, what are you waiting for, take a dash, dance or prance around the Bridges this Christmas!
