Businesses Help Bring Festive Magic to Santas on the Run

04 November 2026 CHSW

Local businesses are helping Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) create a magical Christmas experience for families by sponsoring this year’s Santas on the Run event at The Eden Project.
 

The festive fun run invites participants to kick off their Christmas celebrations in fancy dress and walk, jog or run a sponsored 2k around The Eden Project. There are 4 Christmassy stops along the way, including a snow station, a selfie with the elf, sweets and treats and festive songs. 
 

St Austell company Polymermedics is returning as headline sponsor, alongside Steve Andrews Tyres and DL Accounts.

The untimed event is designed for all ages and abilities, with participants encouraged to complete the route at their own pace while raising vital funds for families supported by CHSW, including those cared for at nearby Little Harbour in St Austell.
