Join the Reading Santa Run and Help Change a Young Musician’s Life

This December, pull on your Santa suit, lace up your trainers, and join Team Berkshire Music Trust in the Reading Santa Run — all to raise vital funds for our Bursary Fund.

Every step you take helps ensure that no young person in Berkshire is denied the chance to access music education because of financial hardship. By taking part, you’re not just running — you’re helping a young musician find their confidence, creativity, and voice.

Why Run for the Bursary Fund?

Each year, children across Berkshire face barriers that prevent them from learning an instrument or joining an ensemble. The Bursary Fund provides lesson support, instrument hire, ensemble access and life-changing opportunities for young people who need it most.

By joining the Santa Run, you can directly help a child begin — or continue — their musical journey.

🎵 Run to raise music

Every pound you raise helps a young person access lessons, instruments and musical opportunities.

Be a Santa. Be a Music Champion.
