It is hoped people will don Santa suits and take part in the first ever Barnsley Museums Heritage Trust Santa Dash on Saturday, 3 December.

Santa dashers will be supplied with a free Santa suit as part of the ticket price, which is £6 per adult, £4 per child and £20 per family or team of four.  All proceeds from ticket sales will go to the Barnsley Museums Heritage Trust, a charity whose aim is to ensure the future of the towns free museum service. Sites include Experience Barnsley, Cooper Gallery, Worsbrough Mill and Country Park, Elsecar Heritage Centre and Cannon Hall Museum, Park and Gardens.
