‘Leeds Scares’ invites you to join the fun this Halloween and buy a virtual balloon to race from Dracula’s Castle and help raise vital funds for Leeds Teaching Hospitals.

The race starts on Saturday 31st October, lasts for a week, is real but totally online.

Virtual balloons which you can personalise are £3 each, then watch as real weather conditions dictate how the race unfolds!

You will have the chance to battle against other entrants taking part in the race for some great prizes: £500 Cash, Apple iPad & Book Tokens. Plus an extra challenge: the leader of our balloons will win a special prize...but you will need to beat the ‘Leeds Scares’ balloon!

Encourage your friends, family, and colleagues to buy a balloon….... there is no limit on how many you can buy, you can even buy a balloon as a present for someone else! If you decide to run a mini competition with your teammates, CSU, school or group, remember to agree a naming convention which allows us to be able to track all balloons bought by your group.
