Buy an imaginary balloon (or several), enjoy tracking its progress on maps for a week, and support people with rare autoinflammatory conditions. You might even win a prize, too.

The "FIFA Women's World Cup" virtual balloon race, supporting a wide range of charities, will "launch" from Sydney in Ausralia at 12 noon on Saturday 15th August, and you can buy balloons up to half an hour before that time. You can choose the shape, colour(s), and pattern of your balloon, write a name or message on it, and alter the thickness of rubber and amount of helium which affect how it "flies" (different weather patterns at different heights), and then watch its progress on maps of South America, improving your knowledge of geography as it travels. All totally imaginary (except the weather data), no litter or harm to wildlife, no use of the earth's precious helium, just a very entertaining computer programme! Prizes are £100 cash or an Amazon Alexa / Echo Dot 4th Generation.
