Vision Support Barrow and District are Entering the Barrow BID Soapbox Derby!
We’re thrilled to announce that Vision Support Barrow and District will be taking part in the Barrow BID Soapbox Derby for the very first time!
This much-loved annual event is a fantastic day out for the whole family, where teams from across the area race their handmade carts down Dalton Road in Barrow. The event runs from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and always draws a great crowd, full of fun and community spirit.
We’re especially excited to have Rosie Smith as our driver. Rosie has always wanted to compete in the Soapbox Derby since it first began, and she can’t wait to race our cart down Dalton Road!
We’re also incredibly proud and grateful to have the support of our amazing sponsors:
Rags Menswear Shop
Boss Hair Studio
South Lakes Game Exchange
Megasthetics, a skincare and beauty salon
A huge thank you to each of them – we really appreciate your support in helping us get on the track!
We’ll be at the event from 8:30 AM until 4:00 PM, so come along and cheer us on! It’s going to be an adrenaline-filled, fun-packed day for everyone.
See you there!
