Ready for some festive fun? Our Rudolph Relay is back for 2025!

Start your Christmas countdown in style and join our sponsored Rudolph Relay! Now in its third year, this festive favourite is open for nurseries, sports clubs, and primary school children in Years 1–6 across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and North Powys – with teachers and staff welcome to join in too.

You choose how your relay looks – and when to hold it! Pick any date in November or December 2025 that fits your timetable, and decide the location, distance, and pace. Whether your pupils dash, dance, skip, hop, or walk, every step helps support local families living with incurable illness.

We’ll give you everything you need to make the day special – including reindeer antlers for every child, as well as stickers, and certificates to celebrate their achievement. We’ll also provide plenty of support for you with our Rudolph Relay event pack.

We ask for a minimum sponsorship of £2 per participant, but schools are welcome to fundraise as much as they’d like.

Plus – this year there’s an exciting extra!

The school that raises the most (per pupil) will receive a fab trophy to celebrate the achievement!

Your support helps us provide free, specialist care for local people at the most difficult time of their lives – and we couldn’t do it without you.

Register here and if you’d like our Rudolph mascot to join your event, just tick the box when signing up – early bookings have the best chance of securing a place in Rudolph’s busy social calendar!

If you have any questions, email us at fundraising@severnhospice.org.uk or call 01952 221351.
