Here at Jigsaw, we’ve been busy packing up antlers to deliver to schools in time for the Reindeer Run! 🦌🚗

If you have already signed up, we will see you soon! 🚐 If not, its not too late!

Whether you’re a school, nursery, or sports team, you are welcome to take part.
You choose the activity—it could be a winter walk around the village or a Christmas-themed dash through the snow. 🎿 We supply an antler headband and sponsor form for each child, then it’s time for your little reindeer to don their antlers, have fun, and raise vital funds for their local hospice.

To register, or for more information, visit our website at www.jigsawhospice.org or email vicki.lesley@edenvalleyhospice.org. 💙

Grab your antlers, lace up those hooves, and join the herd this festive season. Let’s make this the most magical fundraiser yet! 🎄💫
