Hundreds of people gathered in Toton for the 30th annual Duck Race along the River Erewash. The event was supposed to take place on New Year's Day.
However after being postponed due to high water levels, the Annual Duck Race in Toton took place today, Monday January 2. Crowds gathered along the River Erewash at Manor Farm Recreation Ground, where a rubber duck could be purchased for £1.50 with all contributions going towards funds for Age UK Derby and Derbyshire.
The Sponsored Ducks are released into the River Erewash and race to the finish. The first ten ducks to cross the finish line win prizes donated by local companies.
