Join Matty’s Countdown To Christmas in support of the Purfleet Pantry!
After last year’s incredible success raising over £1,800, Matty is back with another Christmas challenge! He’ll be running 5km every single day in December, dressed in festive fancy dress, to raise funds for The Purfleet Trust’s Purfleet Pantry.

Each day, runners from supporting businesses will join Matty to help spread festive cheer and keep him company on his journey — all while raising vital funds for a fantastic local cause.
The Calendar!
Matty will be running 5km every day in December joined by local businesses who will be supporting him on his journey! The calendar below outlines his challenge:

You can print one of these calendars and share with your friends or workplace, sponsoring a day each for just £1.00 per day. This will help raise £25.00 to support Matty's challenge!
Supporting the Purfleet Pantry
This challenge isn’t just about the miles — it’s about making a difference.
The Purfleet Pantry, launched in 2023 by The Purfleet Trust, is a social supermarket helping people in King’s Lynn access affordable food, furniture, clothing, and essentials. It also offers support services and activity groups for the local community.

All money raised through Matty’s challenge will go directly towards helping vulnerable people this Christmas.
Go on, Matty!
Let’s get behind Matty and cheer him on as he takes on this huge festive challenge!
