We’ll send you a confirmation email of your booking along with your fundraising pack. Keep a look out for our emails as we’ll be sending you hints, tips and up to date news in the run up to event day.

Whilst your registration fee will help cover some of the event costs including your fundraising pack, snowflake medal and lights around Endcliffe Park, it’s the extra money raised on your fundraising page or sponsor forms that really make the difference for the children and families in the hospital.

Yes, all children are welcome but anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied around the course by an adult.

5km (or 5,000m or 3 miles, whichever way you prefer to look at it). The perfect distance for a run, jog or walk around Endcliffe Park!

The route will be two laps of Endcliffe Park and there will be marshals on route to make sure you are safe and having a great time. 

The route map will be uploaded here and also on the registration website nearer the time!

Nope! We would like everyone to enjoy the informal, friendly atmosphere of running or walking along the route, so for this event, there will be no timing or results available. Everyone enjoys the course in their own way. Please feel free to bring your own timing device, if you wish.

You can, however we would advise that all dogs stay on a lead as other participants may not be comfortable around dogs and it will be dark. We would also advise that your dog wears a reflective/lit up collar or lead.

If you've suffered a recent illness or have a medical condition, please consult your doctor before taking part. If in any doubt, don't participate. Safety is our top priority and all participants should take precautions. A medical team will be in attendance throughout the event.

You will be entering this challenge entirely at your own risk and will not be covered by The Children’s Hospital Charity. It is up to you to make sure you have insurance in place, should you encounter injury, loss or damage to yourself or any personal belongings. Please ensure you read and agree to the terms & conditions when registering for the event.

The route is pushchair and wheelchair accessible. We will be using the footpath all the way around the route. If you are unsure or worried about this please do give us a call on 0114 321 2470 or email us at events@tchc.org.uk

Yes, but why would they want to just come and watch? Get them to join in the fun with you!

Get your glow on! We want you to come prepared to glow your way around Endcliffe Park; this includes glow sticks, glow bracelets, glow necklaces, fairy lights! We also want to see Santa hats, elf hats and all other Christmassy costumes.

However glowy you can be, please do remember that whatever you wear should be suitable for physical activity and should keep you warm.

The start line will be by the stage and warm up area opposite the play area. All you have to do is listen to our announcer, they will let you know when it’s time to head to the start line – once they say “go” you’ll move with your friends (old and new) to the start line and head off around the park! We would advise those running to start at the front and those walking to start at the back.

The finish line will be located in the Endcliffe Park play area, so once you have done 2 laps, head into the play area to collect your goodies and then head over to the cafe to get your hot chocolate.

Respect above all else. We are YES people, we’ll do what we can to ensure a great night as long as you do the same and treat all our: entertainers, participants, venue, staff, volunteers and new friends with respect. We are an alcohol, smoking and drug free zone – we use a zero-tolerance approach – no questions, no arguments, you will be escorted out.

Come rain or shine we will go ahead!

The only reason the event would be cancelled would be due to heavy snow and ice. If we do have to cancel for this reason, then we will aim to hold the event on an alternative date or virtually as soon as we can. Unfortunately, registration fees are non-refundable for weather cancellations.

If there is a chance of cancellation, a decision will be made on the morning of the event at the earlierst possibility and you will be notified via email, text and social media posts.
