Beth Ferguson from Accord Hospice said: "We are delighted to be partnering with Frasers Plus Braehead for our first Festive Footsteps through Braehead.
"Every penny raised will help Accord Hospice continue providing compassionate care and support to people living with life-limiting illness, as well as their families and loved ones.
"We can’t wait to see the community come together, embrace the festive spirit and make a meaningful difference."
Designed for young children and their families but open to all ages, the event will start with an elf-led warm-up, or "elvesercises."
Some of the route will be outdoors, so participants are encouraged to dress warmly and be prepared for winter weather.
Entry costs £8 per child, with adults taking part for free.
All proceeds will go directly to Accord Hospice to support its vital work for local patients and families.
