This is a 5.6 mile, mostly uphill ride from Rockets & Rascals on the Barbican, to Derriford hospital, to deliver donated toys (and toiletries) to kids in hospital over the Christmas period.
If you can, please dress up as Santa, an elf, or similar. Please ensure donated toys are new, and NOT gift-wrapped - this is so hospital staff can distribute age-appropriate gifts to kids. The ward also asked for age-appropriate toiletries.
Alongside the ride is our Justgiving page (https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/plymouthsantaride), to raise money for child-friendly decorations for the newly-enlarged Children's Department within the the Emergency Department (A&E). Donating to this brilliant cause will help thousands of kids over many years.

If this ride is too long or strenuous for you, or if you want to bring kids along, we also have a second, shorter ride, starting from the George Junction Park & Ride site.
