About this race:
Shine (formerly ASBAH) was formed in 1966 to support families living with spina bifida and hydrocephalus on a daily basis. 2016 marks our Golden Anniversary and in that time we have grown as an organisation and currently support around 12,000 families and individuals, not only with spina bifida and hydrocephalus, but with a range of other health issues associated with these conditions.
When the race starts you can follow its fortunes as it flies across landmarks, competing against the balloons of other Shine supporters hoping to win the race and a choice of prizes! Your kind support in sponsoring a balloon will ensure that we are able to continue providing our services, and lifelong support to our children and their families when they need us most, for many more years to come!
