See the balloons in flight
Join in and race a kite to support bereaved families across the West Midlands!
Starting on Sunday 15 June at midday, the race will last a week. We will have three winners: the three kites or balloons that travel the furthest on the digital racecourse will win a lovely hamper of goodies as a special prize.*
You can buy and race a kite or balloon in memory of a loved one for only £5. They will be available until 2 days before the race start date.
All the proceeds from this race will help us continuing to support bereaved parents, children and young people across the West Midlands.
Join the race and #FlyTheKite with us!
