🎄 Mickleover Running Club Christmas Appeal 2025🎄
Spreading Kindness This Festive Season

At Mickleover Running Club, we believe in the power of community, not just when we run together, but when we come together to support those in need. This Christmas, we’re proud to partner with Doorways Derby, a local charity dedicated to helping people who are struggling.

Your donations can make a real difference, bringing warmth, comfort, and hope to those who need it most.

We’re collecting donations before our Club Runs at The Mason Arms, 6:20pm on the following dates:

• • Tuesday 25th November
• • Thursday 27th November
• • Thursday 4th December

Simply bring along your contribution and drop it off before we set off.

What to Donate

Doorways Derby welcomes a variety of items to support individuals and families, including:

• • Non-perishable food (tins, packets, pasta, rice)
• • Warm clothing, hats, gloves, scarves
• • Toiletries and hygiene products

For a full list the bottom of this page, every item, big or small, helps make life a little easier for someone in need.
