ASBAH'S VIRTUAL BALLOON RACES
This is your company's opportunity to sponsor "virtual balloons" in all or any of ASBAH's 10 Virtual Balloon Races held each year.
Why Virtual Balloon Races?
ASBAH has stopped real balloon launches due to environmental concerns over pieces of balloon being mistaken for food by marine animals and fish, so ALL future races will be virtual, on-line, computer-generated and interactive.
More fun to take part and no damage to the environment!
For a small cost, which goes to help support people with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus, you can design and back a balloon to travel the furthest in one or more of our 10 races each year.
The winning balloon will win a case of champagne for its sponsor - real champagne, not virtual!

Thank you for your help - last year ASBAH made over 5,000 home visits, and our community advisers are an invaluable lifeline to the 15,000 babies, children and families with spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus in the UK.
"As a successful property development company it is good to be able to put something back into the community. Asbah's balloon races are a simple way of doing this and good fun, wondering how far our balloons will travel. It's not about winning the champagne prize, but knowing that we are helping others, and our staff and customers can see how we are helping such a worthwhile charity!"
