There is still time for you to become an elf.

Sign up to run, jog or walk 5km in Bournemouth Hospital Charity’s 5km Reindeer Run to help raise money for your NHS heroes this Christmas.

The virtual event takes place this Saturday 5 and Sunday 20 December in a location of your choice. Raise £30 ore more in funds and you will receive a medal.

Participants also have the option of following a signed 5km route at Avon Heath Country Park using the signs or Strava running app.

Money raised will support the mental and physical health of frontline heroes by funding additional services and items such as access to psychological support, wellbeing books in staff areas for positive mental health and non-perishable snacks during shifts.

Registration is £8 per person or £20 for a group of four. Sign up at BHCharity.org/reindeerrun or call the Charity Office on 0300 019 4060.

Please adhere to social distancing and local restrictions when taking part in this event.
