It’s a fantastic opportunity to bring the campus and the local community together for some fun and creativity. \nSponsor a duck\nBeginning on Monday\, 3 August\, you can sponsor a duck (one duck per person due to overwhelming demand last year) for the race by making a minimum donation of £1. Sponsorships are available at the Bookshop (next to Prebend Cottage) every Friday and Saturday\, Reception (in the Vinson Building) every Monday to Thursday\, or the Students’ Union at the OTM\, all located on Hunter Street. \nEach sponsored duck comes with a card for the artwork competition\, inviting participants to get creative and design a unique drawing of a duck.

They will be displayed inside the Tanlaw Mill. \nJust like last year\, the ducks used in the race will be reused to support environmental sustainability\, which means participants won’t be able to take them home. This eco-friendly initiative helps reduce waste while maintaining the fun and excitement of the event. \nTable Top Sale\nThis year we will also be bringing back the option to “buy� a trestle table for £5. Anyone wanting a table is free to sell what they would like\, for their own charities\, or for the one we will be supporting.
