Story
Join the Santa Fun Run and Help Support Heathrow Special Needs Centre.
This Christmas, put on your Santa suit, gather your friends and family, and help make a difference to local people living with additional needs.
On Sunday 22nd November 2026, we're inviting as many people as possible to take part in the Staines Santa Fun Run and raise much-needed funds for Heathrow Special Needs Centre.
Whether you're running, jogging, walking, pushing a buggy or using a wheelchair, we'd love you to get involved!
Why We Need Your Support
For over 40 years, Heathrow Special Needs Centre has provided a welcoming, inclusive environment where children and adults with disabilities and additional needs can spend time with animals, enjoy nature, build confidence and connect with others.
Home to more than 65 animals, our Centre welcomes approximately 3,500 visits each year, providing activities and experiences that make a genuine difference to people's lives.
For some of our visitors, a trip to the Centre is their only opportunity to get out, socialise and enjoy something special during the week.
With fundraising becoming increasingly challenging, we need the support of our local community more than ever.
How You Can Help
1. Sign up for the Staines Santa Fun Run
Join this fantastic community event on Sunday 22nd November.
2. Get Sponsored!
Ask your family, friends and colleagues to sponsor you. All donations for Heathrow Special Needs Centre can be made directly through this JustGiving campaign page.
3. Spread the Word
Encourage your friends, family, neighbours and work colleagues to join you. The more Santas taking part, the more money we can raise!
4. Let Us Know You're Coming

Every Pound Makes a Difference
Whether you raise £20, £50, £100 or more, every donation helps us care for our animals, maintain our facilities and continue providing meaningful experiences for people with disabilities and additional needs.
Can't take part? You can still help! Simply make a donation through this page or share our campaign with others.
Together, we can turn a sea of Santas into much-needed support for our Centre.
Thank you for helping us continue improving lives for all.
