We’re your neighbours. The folk behind the Carmyle Santa Run. The people who care about this place and want to bring it back to life.For over 34 years, the Carmyle Santa Run has brought smiles, spirit and support to Carmyle. Now, we’re taking that same community energy and putting it into something bigger.Because let’s be honest, Carmyle needs a bit of a re-run.Our community centre is gone. Local services are stretched. There’s nowhere for folk to gather, for kids to go after school, for older residents to feel less isolated. And now, our greenbelt is being sold to developers to build 400 houses on land that’s part of our village’s heart and habitat.This isn’t about nostalgia. It’s about the future and doing something, together.

What is Carmyle Re:Run?

Carmyle Re:Run is a new community-led group created to bring our community centre back to life, not just as it was, but better than before.It’s the next chapter of something already well-loved, the spirit of the Carmyle Santa Run, just…all year round.We’re here to:
Reopen the Community Centre
Rebuild trust
Reconnect generations
Reignite local pride
Reclaim our landBecause when we run it ourselves, we run it right.

What We Stand For

For everyone: From toddlers to tea drinkers.For connection: building relationships and reducing isolation.For care: promoting awareness, support and community wellbeing.For action: Events, activities, after-school clubs, practical help.For Carmyle: Always.

Why Now?

Because our community is under pressure.
Our centre’s been closed for years. We’ve no space for groups, clubs, or local support. And now, 400 homes are planned for our green space - land we use to walk, cycle, de-stress, and connect.
The strain on our GP, roads, and local services will be immense.
This isn’t just about land - it’s about losing what makes Carmyle feel like home. We don't want to be the forgotten village.This is the time to act.
