If you are already organising an event and think you could help support the Appeal in some way, please do get in touch. We’d be delighted to discuss with you ways in which we can work together.

Watch out for The Grand Appeal and Wallace & Gromit at various events in and around Bristol throughout the year. You may find us selling unique Wallace & Gromit merchandise, hosting a raffle or tombola, or holding a competition with fab prizes! If you see us out and about, be sure to come and say hello, we’d love to meet you!

And remember these Bristol events taking place every year….

• Rat Race Urban Adventure – Get sponsored to take part in this urban adventure as you run, climb, abseil and kayak the streets, structures and waterways and urban landscape in teams of three. For more info click here

	Dragon Boat Race - Each September, the Appeal takes part in Bristol’s brilliant Dragon Boat Race, and we’d love you to get involved! Crews of 16 paddlers (plus a drummer) will race in Chinese-style Dragon Boats over a 250 metre course. Crews do not need to be super fit or skilled to be successful – all that’s required is teamwork and a good sense of fun! Dragon Boat racing is steeped in mythology and has been around for many thousands of years in China. Popular legend has it that through the racing, Chinese dragons would bring rain. We hope that this will not be the case on 28th September! The racing will be run by leading events company The Organisation who provide the boats, helms, safety equipment, life-jackets and rescue boats. Call Anna on 0800 919 649 for more info.
