Be Someone's Santa is a small Glasgow-based charity that provides Christmas gifts and aid to specifically nominated children and young people who are living in poverty and are unlikely to receive anything this Christmas.

Story

Be Someone's Santa (SCIO) provides Christmas gifts for specifically nominated children and young adults who are unlikely to receive anything at Christmas time. What began as a small collection by a Glasgow South Side mum five years ago, now delivers over 1,500 gifts each year.

Activ are supporting BSS as part of our Christmas charity night. Leading up to Retro Friday on the 22nd of December we are running a fitness challenge in the studio.

There are 3796kms for Santa to travel between Glasgow and the North Pole so our members have to cover the same number of lengths on the track in studio. They can do this by lunging, bear crawling or burpee broad jumping.

Any support to help power our efforts would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks,

Team Activ
