We’re in Race 7! Support Headway Kent at the Dover Duck Race 🦆

We’re excited to be taking part in the Rotary Club of Dover’s annual Duck Race on Saturday 16th August 2025 at Kearsney Abbey – and we’d love you to come along and say hello!

This brilliant family event raises funds for ten local charities, and we’re lucky enough to have been chosen as one of them. We’re officially Race 7, so every duck entered into that race helps raise money for local brain injury support.

It’s just £1 to race a duck – and there are some cracking cash prizes if your duck comes in as a finalist. First prize is a whopping £500 – not bad for a rubber duck! The club is selling Ducks at:Dover Regatta on 12th July and at Outlets in Dover town - Le Salle Vert, Art Club, Beehive Cafe, Help our Town Shop, Rapid Tackle, and St Mary's Parish Centre.

As always, we’ll be there on the day – sharing info about what we do at Headway Kent, how we support people with acquired brain injury, and how you can get involved. Whether you’re coming to race, volunteer, or just enjoy a good day out, we’d love to see you.
