Reindeer Fun 2020!

From cracking Christmas dance offs to taking on a festive run, join in with Chestnut Tree House to take on some exciting Reindeer Fun!

Grab your antlers this December and hold your very own Reindeer Fun fundraising challenge for Chestnut Tree House.

Festive frolics for schools, groups and workplaces of all sorts, join in with the Reindeer Fun and raise much needed funds for your local children’s hospice.

We will give every participant FREE reindeer antlers and a red nose, and one Santa suit per group. All we ask is that you raise as much sponsorship as you can, and have lots of festive fun!

Watch the video below, featuring Elgar House at The Weald School, to learn more about how you can take part in Reindeer Fun.

This video was filmed pre-COVID-19.

Last year, people hopped, skipped and jumped their way through their Reindeer-themed challenges and raised money for Chestnut Tree House along the way. There were obstacle courses, laps around fields, bake sales and even an ice skating challenge!

Want to get involved for 2020? Put together your own challenge, and plan your fundraising. Here are some more ideas:

  • Reindeer Run
  • Reindeer Row
  • Reindeer Dance-Off
  • Reindeer Business Brunch
  • Reindeer Ramble
  • Reindeer Toddle
  • Reindeer Yoga

We will provide you with everything you need to run your event, including posters, sponsorship forms and helpful hints. We will also give an audience-appropriate assembly or talk about the hospice either in person, or via an online platform such as Zoom.

COVID-19

We are closely monitoring the government guidelines for COVID-19, and are hopeful that everyone will be able to join in and have some Reindeer Fun!

Should the social distancing rules change in December, we will also be providing lots of ideas and inspiration for how you can join in virtually, and in households.

Keep an eye out for more information coming soon.
