The magic of Christmas is set to roll through South Yorkshire once again as three charitable organisations prepare to bring Santa and his sleigh to neighbourhoods across the region.

With twinkling lights, festive music, and a healthy dose of holiday cheer, Maltby Lions and Penistone and Rotherham Round Table groups’ annual Santa Sleigh Runs have become a much-loved tradition for families eager to catch a glimpse of Father Christmas before the big day. 

As well as spreading smiles, the Santa Sleigh Runs also raise vital funds for local charities. The elves will have their buckets at the ready for cash donations, but you can also donate online.
