“Research has proven that a Festive Fun Run is good for your ‘elf’!” says organiser Ken Bennell of Thame & District Lions Club. “…And raising money for a cause like Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity is definitely good for your soul. That’s why we do this every year; because people love it as part of the town’s festive calendar, and because the money raised really helps people suffering with terminal illness in the local community.”

Family entry is £30, or it’s £10 per adult, £7.50 per child under 16 years and free for children under two.
