Saturday 29th June | Staines-upon-Thames Day | In support of MidasPlus

It’s time to ruffle some feathers, the legendary Big Duck Race is back, and it’s one of the highlights of the Staines-upon-Thames Day celebrations! Whether you’re a local business, school, charity, or just love a good splash of fun, this is your chance to take part in a feel-good event that raises money for a brilliant local cause.

Hosted by the much loved charity MidasPlus, the Big Duck Race isn’t just a fantastic spectacle, it’s a fundraising event with real community impact. And yes, it involves actual giant ducks floating (and racing!) down the river.

Get creative. Join the race. Support local.

For just £50 (or £90 for two ducks), you can sponsor and decorate your very own duck with a prize on offer for the best-decorated duck and, of course, glory for the winning duck in the big race.

Even better? The duck is yours to keep and re-enter in future years. It’s tax de-duck-table too!

Discounted entry is available for schools and registered charities – just £25 for one duck or £45 for two.

Why enter?

  • Raise your profile while supporting a fantastic local charity
  • Get your brand or school colours on show in front of the local community
  • Have a laugh, get creative, and be part of something that brings Spelthorne together
  • Win a prize, bragging rights… and maybe even a trophy-winning duck!
