Bathstore in Burton On Trent have donated dozens of blue Bathstore ducks to raise money for four town charities. The Burton Lions Club drew in the flocks while selling tickets for a duck race on Sunday, in Coopers Square shopping centre, Burton.
The Lions sold 60 tickets for a charity duck race which will take place at the Lion's Spring Fair being held on Monday, May 25, in Stapenhill Gardens, Main Street, Stapenhill.
The ducks were priced at £2 with the winning duck on the day bagging its owner a £500 prize with the rest of the money that is accumulated through the ticket sales being donated to charity.
Burton Lions president Roy Waterland said: "It was a very good day. People were very interested in knowing what we were selling the ducks for.
"It's all for charity and it should be a good day out on Bank Holiday Monday."
The Lions will be holding their next duck race all day on Saturday, March 28, in Burton Place shopping centre.
