Story

Since our very first Christmas Tractor Run in December 2016, we, along with friends, family and customers from our local farming community, have continued to light up the streets each year with our festive fleet raising over £97,000 so far for Katharine House Hospice.

We are very excited to be holding the tractor run for the 8th time in 2023 and for the second year including Banbury Cross in our tour!

As well as to spread some festive cheer each year, the aim of the Christmas Tractor Run is to raise as much money as possible for a charity very close to our family’s heart, Katharine House Hospice.

Katharine House Hospice provides specialist palliative care for adults with incurable illnesses. The amazing team supports the patient and their loved ones too, ensuring that every moment matters. Your donation will mean more people can receive this care.

Our family isn’t alone in having experienced the care KHH has given our loved ones over the years, which is why so many of our Tractor Run Drivers are passionate about decorating their tractors to create such a fantastic display in the hope you will be inspired to donate to such an amazing cause.

By donating to your hospice, you can help local families who are facing their last Christmas with loved ones with a life-limited illness to receive compassionate, individualised care and support so they can make the most of the time they have left together.

All of Katharine House services are free of charge to patients, but it costs around £4.8 million each year to provide these services, and they only receive about a quarter of this from the government. Everything else – more than £3 million – comes from people in the community, as well as local business and trusts and foundations. So, if you enjoyed our festive convoy please make a donation of whatever you can to show your support.
