Santa Dash a Christmas cracker: GALLERY

DOZENS of Santas hit the road in Rotherham for a festive fund-raising run.

Runners donned Santa suits to complete a one-mile fund-raising Santa Dash round the town centre in aid of Rotherham Hospice.

First female and male finishers were PatriciaTurpin, who won a one-hour spa session for two at Spa Elements, and Kieren Lynch, whose prize was a signed Rotherham United shirt and programme.

All runners received a certificate, medal and shopping vouchers for town centre shops and cafes.

The hospice is hoping the event will raise £1,500.
