Our Santa fun runners all crossed the finish line, had lots of fun along the way and raised over £500.

Pharmacy team, Chris, Shyam, Vivian and Alexia and PACU/recovery team Winnie, Sheila and Ana Maria donned their Santa suits, dodged the rain, and joined thousands of others on the 4.5k route.

Chris said: “It was a fantastic experience, and the whole team had an amazing time. We’re thrilled to have been able to support the charity.

“What will I take away from it? Don’t underestimate the power of the festive spirit – it’s contagious! We’re already talking about doing it again next year, so watch this space.

Winnie said: “The run was such a fun way to end the day. Bring surrounded by multiple Santa’s walking, jogging, and running made it easy for us to fit in.

“For anyone keen to support the charity, I would urge them to just do it.”
