Krydsede raser · Ukendt · Lam · Alder ukendt
På søndag den 6. september 2026 vil vi igen se 1000 gule ænder svømme ned ad floden ved Swan Meadows i Abergavenny for at hjælpe hundene hos Hope Rescue. ænderne vil blive sluppet fra vejbroen over floden og svømme ned ad floden, hvor de skal navigere rundt om sten, stejle fald og vandpest, før de bliver samlet op af vores frivillige fra Hope Rescue (tag dine gummistøvler på, folk!). Hver and koster £1, og den første over målstregen vinder. Du er velkommen til at komme og heppe på din and, men du behøver ikke at være til stede for at deltage. Vores team af frivillige sørger for at fange den hurtigste and. Husk, den heldige vinder får præmien på £100. Alle andnumre vil blive sendt ud før løbet, og hver enkelt and vil blive fanget i vores net for at forhindre dem i at svømme videre. Nyt i 2026 er, at vi inviterer lokale virksomheder til at deltage ved at sponsorere en and. Sponsorering koster kun £10 pr. and, og til gengæld vil din virksomheds navn blive vist på vores begivenhedsside her på vores hjemmeside, som tiltrækker 4.000 besøgende om måneden. Og hvis din and vinder, vil du blive tagget på vores sociale medier, som har en kombineret rækkevidde på over 130.000 mennesker.

On Sunday 6th September 2026 we will once again see 1000 yellow ducks head down the river at Swan Meadows in Abergavenny to help the dogs at Hope Rescue. The ducks will launch from the road bridge over the river, then travel downstream, navigating boulders, steep drops and pond weeds before being collected by our team of Hope Rescue volunteers (don't forget your wellies guys!). Each duck costs £1 and the first across the finish line is the winner. You are most welcome to come along to cheer on your duck, but you don't have to be present on the day to take part. Our team of volunteers will make sure that they capture the fastest duckie swim across the finish line. Don't forget, the lucky winner will get the prize of £100. All duck numbers will be emailed out prior to the race and EVERY single duck will be caught in our nets to prevent them travelling any further. New for 2026, we are inviting local businesses to get involved by sponsoring a duck. Sponsorship just £10 per duck and in return your business name will be listed on our event page here on our website, which attracts 4,000 visitors per month AND if your duck wins you will be tagged on our social media pages, which has a combined reach of over 130,000 people.
