The little, yellow, plastic ducks will take around 20 minutes to get to the finish line, under the bridge in Church Street, next to Naylor’s Drive.

There are prizes for the winning ducks - £100 for first place, £50 for second and £25 for third.

There are other prizes available too, including for the last three ducks home.
