The Edinburgh Santa Fun Run is a great annual event which raises money for "When you wish upon a star" - a worthy charity which brings some joy to very ill children across the UK. Every year huge numbers of fundraisers dress up as Santa Claus and walk, jog or run the 2.5 km course around West Princes Street Gardens. Even if you do not feel like dressing up and joining in, it is still worth popping along to enjoy the sight of so many Santas and perhaps making a donation to this excellent charity. Your donation may help send a ill or disabled child on a thrilling trip of a lifetime to Lapland!
