This December, I’ll be joining hundreds of others for the Leeds Santa Dash - a festive run through the heart of the city.

I’m raising funds for Leeds Hospitals Charity to help brighten Christmas for patients spending the season in hospital, and to further strengthen the outstanding care provided by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.

Your donations will fund life-saving equipment, innovative treatments, and vital research into rare diseases, thus bringing hope, comfort, and joy to every bedside this Christmas.

Every contribution, however small, makes a real difference. Please consider supporting this cause and helping to uphold the true spirit of Christmas.
