In September of 2021 I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to attend the world scout jamboree in Korea. Therefore I have to fundraise nearly £4000 in order to attend. I'm really looking forward to this opportunity as it is a once in a lifetime event that will stick with me forever. I'm going as part of unit 40 - Humberside and have already made loads of new freinds.

How does EcoRacing work?

- Each balloon costs £4. You get to design and personalise your balloon, including the size/shape/thickness of your balloon and how much helium it has in it. All of these design features impact your chance of winning the race!

- 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.

- Let EcoRacing take care of the rest without worrying about adding pointless plastic in the oceans! 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.

- Sit back and hope you designed a winner! The first prize is £100 cash, followed by an Amazon Alexa/Echo Dot and finally 10 lucky winners of £10 book tokens

Our fundraising target is: £200

Gross monies raised so far: £48

Supporters so far: 5
