The Great Norwich Duck Race is run by the 1st Norwich Sea Scout Group (Reg.Charity No. 1034608) in conjunction with the Lord Mayor of Norwich celebrations. Funds raised will go towards scouting in and around Norwich as well as a contribution to the Lord Mayor's charity and East Anglia's Children's Hospices (EACH). In the event of unforeseen circumstances which prevent the race being run the promoter will decide the winners by a lottery of the entrants.
