Charity Partner Opportunities 2026

The Lincoln Santa Fun Run is a popular community and fundraising event firmly established in the festive calendar of Lincoln City. 2026 will be the our 21st consecutive year making it one of the longest running Santa Fun Runs in the country.

On Sunday 13th December 2000 “santas’ of all ages and abilities form a sea of red to run (or walk) through historic uphill Lincoln starting in Castle Square and ending by the imposing Lincoln Cathedral. This is a great festive family event just before Christmas.

This is a great charity fundraising opportunity but we can only offer a maximum of 10 Partner Charity Places. We will review all applications on the information provided and previous years participation (if relevant).

Charity Partners help us promote the event and encourage their supporters to take part. In return we will make a donation (£10 for each adult supported taking part) and the charity can fundraise through the event.

The event is well publicised and attracts excellent media coverage on the day with press, radio, TV and social media

It is organised by The Rotary Club of Lincoln Colonia (a registered charity) who will donate any funds remaining after event costs to local, national and international charities during the following year.

We welcome and encourage charities to take part with teams and individuals raising funds for their cause.

We always welcome ideas to make this event even better and raise more funds – please contact us here.
