Gloucestershire is going DUCK CRAZY this summer… and we want YOUR business to be part of it.
The Chamwell Centre Charity is launching the brand-new Duck Build Challenge & Duck Trail — a fun, creative and competitive event where local businesses design and build their own unique duck for public display in Gloucestershire.
Throughout August, the public will follow the Duck Trail in the county, discovering the ducks and voting for their favourites! — giving participating businesses fantastic visibility and community engagement.
This is your chance to: Get Creative. Get Competitive. Go Quackers!
- Get your business seen
- Promote your brand in a fun and memorable way
- Engage your team in something creative
- Gain exposure across event marketing and social media
- Be voted one of our Chamwell Duck Champions!
Your duck doesn’t need to be made from your products or trade materials — it simply needs to reflect your business, team, personality or creativity.
Funny? Bold? Completely quackers!? We want to see it.
And YES… there will be Public Voting and Awards!
