Rotary's Godalming Duck Race Results 2026

Once again this year's Duck Race was a very enjoyable day out for over 1500 people and raised over £7,000 for the Rotary causes.
All winners are being notified and will receive their prizes.

The Races begin

Over 1500 people turned up to watch their Ducks racing along the River Wey on Saturday 12th September at the Phillips Memorial Park in Godalming.

A massive thank you to everyone who came along on Saturday and supported our event.  The weather was good to us this year and we hope that you all had an enjoyable time.

For the first time ever we sold out all 26 races which shows the fantastic support we get from the general public both on the day and at our visits to local pubs, etc prior to the event.

Overall your support helped us raise over £7,000 which is a fantastic result for us. 

Without your support, we would not be able to help the local charities and community initiatives we support. 

The event was managed by 30 members of the Godalming Rotary clubs and friends of Rotary and the ducks were safely corralled by Godalming canoe club members. We had some wonderful singers and musicians provide entertainment in between the duck races from Phoebe and some of her groups.

We could not have put on this event without Godalming Town Council, particularly Andy Jeffery and support from Waverley Borough Council.

Our grateful thanks go to our principal sponsors, Seymours.

The list of the race winners and overall winners of the final is below.  Race winners each receive £20. The winners in the final details are included below. Each winner will be contacted to arrange payment of their prize(s).
