We are absolutely overwhelmed and incredibly honoured to have been nominated for the BBC “Make a Difference” Award.

To be recognised alongside so many amazing individuals and groups who work tirelessly to support their communities truly means the world to us. We are so grateful to the person who thought of us and took the time to nominate the Christmas Tractor Run.

What started as a way to bring people together during the festive season has grown into something really special. Seeing the community line the streets, families coming together, and everyone getting behind such a positive event is what makes it all worthwhile.

We genuinely love what we do, and being able to raise money for charity while creating smiles and memories for so many people is the greatest reward of all.

Thank you for all the continued support — this nomination belongs to everyone who takes part, donates, waves from the roadside, and helps make the Christmas Tractor Run such a wonderful community event. ❤️🚜🎄

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Christmas Festive Illuminated Truck & Tractor Run. To our amazing community, the dedicated drivers who lit up the roads, and our generous sponsors — this event simply wouldn’t be possible without you.

Thanks to your kindness and support, we have raised an incredible £13,013.55, which will be split equally between Blood Cancer UK, RABI, and The DanKitching35 Foundation — leaving £4,337.85 for each charity.

Every single donation, big or small, will make a real and lasting difference in helping people and families who need it most. Your generosity, time, effort, and festive spirit truly show the power of coming together as a community.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for making this year’s run such a special and impactful success ❤️✨
