This is when Melton's Santa Fun Run and Walk is taking place and how you can get involved
The fundraiser is being held on Sunday, December 9, and is now in its ninth year.
It is organised by the Rotary Club of Melton Mowbray.
Last year, due to snow and ice the event was cancelled.
Rotarian Alison Blythe said: “This is a wonderful opportunity to take a run, walk or stroll round a 5km or 1 mile course at Melton Country Park, and whilst enjoying yourself you can be raising funds for your favourite charity or helping to support a local organisation.
