The Tinsel Trotters

Raising money for Scannappeal

Santa's Fun Run Marlow · 7 December 2025 ·

Since 1987 Scannappeal has raised over £19m for life saving and life changing medical equipment for hospitals in Bucks, particularly for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients. Every 10 minutes a patient in the local area is diagnosed or treated with equipment funded by Scannappeal.

Story

OMG! That was so much fun....a sea of Santa Claus' pounding the streets of Marlow in the wind and rain was quite the spectacle!

Thank you so much to everyone that supported us by donating or by cheering us on yesterday. We are so appreciative of all your support....

Special thanks also to those businesses that were separately fundraising for us too! Together we can generate a healthier community through the provision of life-changing medical equipment.

THANK YOU...

Well this is a first for all of us - not only being called a Tinsel Trotter, but also walking / running a 5k in head to toe Santa Claus outfits festively adorned in Tinsel and other Christmas regalia!!!

What are we doing in Marlow on 7th December?

We're joining the Marlow Santa Fun Run.....with 3000 others!

Why are we doing this?

The intrepid and brilliant Scannappeal team, including Nigel and our Chairman Keith, and the James and Kaley families, are raising money for the Mobile Breast Screening Appeal, bringing the best diagnostic capability, better experience and life saving technology closer to the home, removing the barriers of distance and time.

Just remember last year 815 women required further assessment following their mammogram and 179 were diagnosed with cancer. Let's help 10,000's of our local residents by taking screening right in to the heart of our communities.

Please support this massive Appeal for a new Mobile Breast Screening Unit and help save 100's of lives. Thank you....

As Lorraine Kelly (ITV presenter) said "...this is about more than equipment, it's about saving lives".
