Derby Riverlights get behind the Ey Up Mi Duck Race

From left to right, Oscar Burgess, Lynda Raven, Simon Leaf and Otis Burgess put the ducks through their paces ready for the race at Gym City.

As main sponsors of the Ey Up Mi Duck Race 2019, the support of Derby Riverlights helped us raise more than £6,000 towards our services, despite heavy rain throughout the day!

In the run up to the race, the larger ducks had a great time exploring the attractions at Riverlights, including the Holiday Inn and Gym City, where they were put through their paces on the static bikes by Simon Leaf from Derby Riverlights, Lynda Raven from Sight Support Derbyshire and some younger helpers.

Our prize sponsors were Lubrizol, who donated the £250 prize for the winning little duck, and Ringwood Hall Hotel and Spa and Holiday Inn Derby Riverlights, who made sure our giant duck winners were rewarded.

A huge thank you to all our corporate supporters who helped to make the day a success.
