To celebrate Yellow Yorkshire Day 2022 we’re bringing back our Big Virtual Duck Race and we would love you to get involved.
Race date: Friday, 1 July 2022 @ 2pm
There will be three races taking place on the day, the general race final (depending on number of entries heats may take place beforehand, with the top 3 ducks from each race entered into a grand final), our corporate race, and our fantastic school’s race.
Ducks are available to purchase until 10 am on Monday 27th June and the race sets off live on our Facebook page on Friday 1st July at 2 pm.
GENERAL DUCK RACE
Ducks in the general race are just £3 and you can purchase as many ducks as you would like. Once you have selected the ducks you wish to enter and completed your transaction, please let us know if you would like a name to appear above your duck by completing the duck name field in the purchase process (you can add a name for each duck you purchase). If this is left blank your first and surname will be used.
ENTRY IS NOW CLOSED
There will be some wonderful prizes for the ducks that finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the Grand Final.
CORPORATE DUCK RACE

ENTRY IS NOW CLOSED
SCHOOLS DUCK RACE
Our fantastically fun schools duck race is back and we would love your school to take part. Each school or class can enter one free duck and all that we ask is that you run a recycling collection day. It would be great if each child could bring in at least one item of unwanted clothing (we are unable to accept branded school uniform), which will then be recycled to raise vital funds for YAA. Our recycling partner, Recycling Solutions, will collect the items from you on a date to be arranged.
The winning school will receive a visit from our fundraising team with one of our fantastic interactive promotional vehicles. Find out more about our promotional vehicles HERE.
ENTRY IS NOW CLOSED.
We will send you a link prior to race day for you to be able to view the race on Friday 1st July 2022.
We would like to thank you for taking part in the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Big Virtual Duck Race and good luck!
