Mental Elf Darlington 2026 – a fun, festive run with a serious purpose: raising vital funds to support mental health in our community.

We all know someone affected by mental health challenges – a friend, a family member, maybe even ourselves. For many, it can feel like a silent struggle. But support, understanding, and timely help can make all the difference.

That’s why we're lacing up our elf shoes and running (or walking!) to raise money for local mental health services. Every donation goes towards helping people in crisis, offering counselling, peer support, and outreach to those who feel alone.
