Get ready to pull on your most creative Santa outfit or festive costume and bring the festive fun to the trails! We’re excited to announce the Allsorts Tinkley Gate Santa Dash – a cheerful, family-friendly 5km off-road event set in the stunning National Trust Tinkley Gate.

We're looking for 250 Santas and elves to join us in raising funds for Allsorts, a brilliant local charity supporting children and young people with additional needs and their families.

Whether you run, jog, walk, or jingle all the way – everyone is welcome, including festive pooches (on leads, of course)
