Ho ho ho - 1500 tired but happy Santas!

Fifteen hundred Santas braved the wintry weather to complete our two Santa Fun Runs in Oswestry and Llandudno. One thousand runners pounded the streets of Oswestry to take part in the two mile race and the mini Rudolph children's run, while conditions on Llandudno's wind swept promenade failed to dampen the Christmas spirit of the 500 Welsh participants.

Race organisers hope to beat last year's amazing £50,000 total. The money raised is the perfect Christmas gift for the hundreds of terminally ill children who visit Hope House and Ty Gobaith. A huge thank you to all who took part!

Full details and photographs of both events will appear in the Daily Post and Shropshire Star newspapers. Visit www.dailypost.co.uk or www.shropshirestar.co.uk.
