Please help support my fundraising to get to the World Scout Jamboree in in SaeManGeum, South Korea, in August 2023. Please buy a virtual balloon that will be released a year to the day that we go to South Korea to meet up with Scouts from all over the world. The balloons that go the furthest will win a prize and you can watch your balloon at they race! (scroll down to buy a balloon)

We have to raise £3,750 to cover the cost of our trip, and to help a scout from a developing country to get to South Korea. As well as the prizes on offer there will be an extra prize for the balloon that goes the furthest from this fundraiser. This will be 10% of the money that we raise. (scroll down to buy a balloon)

Thank you!
Zac

How does it work?
- Design your balloon, including changing flight parameters - balloon helium contents (1 - 5 litres of gas) ; shape; thickness of rubber.
- Watch your balloon launch and race online on the 1st August 2022 as part of a wider 'Jamboree' race, encompassing multiple people raising money for the Jamboree
- The tech does the work for you! Balloons are subject to mathematical and physics algorithms to simulate a flight pattern based on your balloon’s individual flight parameters plus the real weather conditions at that actual time such as the prevailing wind speed and current temperature. The advanced computer modelling programme is then linked to a mapping provider and Aeris, a commercial global weather data supplier. Ecoracing has access to around 12,000 weather stations including Antarctica and the North Pole.

Our fundraising target is: £500

Gross monies raised so far: £108

Supporters so far: 11
