THE MASS BALLOON RELEASE 2009

 
  To the sounds of the 1812 overture, over 1000 helium filled bio-degradable balloons took to the rain filled sky at 4pm on July 11th 2009 from our village of Cattistock in Dorset

Each balloon was 'sold' for a minimum of £1 and, after all expenses, the event raised over £1200

The results are listed below.

We are repeating the event again on July 11th  2010. Please contact us for details
