Celebrate the festive season by flying over Lapland with Ormiston Families during our fully-virtual, eco-friendly balloon race starting on 25th December!
Based on live, real-world weather data, this race sees you pay just £3 for a balloon which you can decorate and customise with features like helium and rubber thickness, preparing it to race dozens of other balloons across the Finnish landscape.
You can monitor your balloon’s progress from the comfort of your own home, and can even gift a balloon to family and friend’s so they can join in on the fun.
Each balloon you purchase directly supports Ormiston Families and our vital family support services. Plus, you’ll have a chance to win some great prizes. Win the race overall and you’ll win £100 cash, come in second place overall and you’ll win an Amazon Alexa or Echo Dot, and come in first out of all Ormiston Families racers and you’ll win a festive prize!
