It’s a great way to start getting in the Christmas Spirit, enjoy a rewarding outdoor experience and help us make a difference!

The four Northampton Rotary Clubs organise the Santa Fun Run to help Charities in Northampton to fundraise in a fun and enjoyable way.
We provide the event village, run infrastructure, loos, first aid cover and refreshments. This is a ‘ not for profit ’ event, which means it is run entirely by unpaid volunteers and all net monies raised will be donated to Local Charities.
Rotary is the largest worldwide charitable organisation, and each British Rotary Club is registered separately with the Charity Commission.
You choose which Charity you will be raising funds for, and your sponsors can support you through our Just Giving northampton2026santafunrun pages.
We will endeavour to make our event as safe as possible with spaced-out warmups and starting times.
Registration and payment can be completed on the sign-up page.
