<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit Santa's JustGiving page.</p>
<p>Sixty six year old retired professional Father Christmas, John Dodd, will be walking in his full festive costume (including his own beard!) for 18 days in December in aid of Lucy Air Ambulance for Children and 4 other charities that are close to his heart. John is a highly accomplished charity walker, having completed 5 already this year, and wearing the same pair of trusty black boots that he bought for £5!</p>
<p>He will be setting off from Tring in Hertfordshire on Tuesday 6th December and will then be passing through Oxford, Burford, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Cheltenham, Minchinhampton, Bourton-on-the-Water and Cirencester. He is seeking support and accommodation along the way. COTSWOLD WATER PARK FOUR PILLARS HOTEL have already kindly offered to host Santa on Thursday 8th December.
