Centre fundraiser Tracey Gill said: “We were thrilled to see so many families support this fantastically festive event at the lovely campus.

“We were impressed by the festive fancy dress and the effort all participants made. It was brilliant to see over 75 elves take part in our winter warm-up hosted by the team at DM Elite. We’re grateful to everyone who took part and raised funds for Maggie’s Highlands. We’re delighted to say that Elf Run will be back next year.”
