The float will be in Sadberge and Middleton-St-George on Sunday, the Brinkburn Road area on Monday, the Victoria Road area on Tuesday, Whinfield on Wednesday, the North Road area on Thursday, High Row next Saturday, Hummersknott on Sunday, December 22, and the Elton Road area on Monday, December 23.
Round Table vice-chairman Mike Drake said: "We knock on doors and ask people for donations.
"They can rest assured that all the money goes to others who need it in and around Darlington."
