The 2008 Santa Run was a great success, thanks to all those who took part in the event.

600 Santas of all ages made it the biggest yet as they ran, jogged or walked through Folkestone to raise a magnificent £16,000 for charity.

Entrant numbers almost doubled in 2008 - Let's make 2009 even bigger and break the 1,000 barrier!

This is the sixth year Folkestone Channel Rotary Club has run this unique event, which raises money for your own favourite charities as well as those chosen by Channel Rotary.

This is an event for all ages and abilities and is a thoroughly enjoyable day for participants and spectators alike. As well as serious runners we welcome joggers and walkers too ; we even accept dogs - with their owners of course. Taking place on the first shopping Sunday before Christmas makes it a real family occasion.
