Designated Charities

This year the designated charities are Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice, Stamford MindSpace and The Rotary Club of Stamford Burghley (they then distribute further to local good causes).

Stamford Striders, which has a membership of nearly 300 (both juniors and seniors), is self-funding and does not receive any income or donations from the Stamford Santa Fun Run. Its members support the event as volunteers, providing energy and resources for the event’s smooth running. All profits go to the designated charities and the audited accounts are available for public inspection.

However, if you are an individual or a representative of a Team who wishes to raise sponsorship money for your own specific charity or good cause, please specify clearly on the entry form. Alternatively, sponsorship money raised can be donated to the Stamford Santa Fun Run’s designated local charities mentioned above. Details for doing this are on the sponsorship forms.
