We’re busy getting everything ready for this year’s Duck Race – proudly sponsored by the fantastic children’s swim school, Puddle Ducks.
Join us from 10am on Monday 25 May in Westbury Garden, with the big race starting at 12 noon.
Every year, hundreds of people from near and far flock to town for what’s become a real highlight of the calendar.
