The event raised more than £40,000 for Derian House Children’s Hospice.
The 15-mile walk on November 8 ran from Chorley Town Hall to Rivington Pike and attracted the biggest turnout in its nine-year history.
Around 1,900 volunteers took part—an increase of about 500 on last year. Many wore full Santa suits, creating a festive atmosphere along the route.
Derian House supports more than 400 babies, children and young people, providing 24-hour care and relying heavily on public fundraising. The hospice needs around £6 million a year to operate, making events like Jingle All The Way vital.
Chorley Group Isuzu supported the walk with two Isuzu D-Max pick-ups used as support vehicles.
The walk was founded in 2012 by Niel Hailwood after the death of his close friend’s son. He said he remained proud of the community’s strong support for the charity.
