We’re inviting schools across Teesside to take part in a festive fun run this December.
Pupils will join Buddy the Mental Elf on a mission to find Santa’s missing reindeer –all while raising vital funds to support local people’s mental health.
As Teesside’s leading mental health charity, we supported over 32,000 people last year.
By taking part in the Mental Elf Run, your school will help us continue making a difference for children, families, and communities across Teesside.
How it works
Our team will organise the run, all you need to do is work with us to get as many of your children involved as possible. You can set the distance and pick a date and time that suits you and your children. It’s suitable for all ages and fitness abilities, and children can gallop, trot and prance into this fun, festive fundraising activity. We can work with you to find the best way to raise funds while the children make some magical memories.
What you'll get
Buddy and his team will set up the festively decorated Reindeer Run course—complete with real snow—while keeping everyone safe and ensuring it’s full of fun! You’ll also receive:
- Antlers for each child
- Certificate of thanks for each child with wellbeing tips on the back
