Ed will be pulling names out of the hat en route to the source of the Amazon river as part of his Prize Draw that will give you the chance to win some fantastic prizes donated from our sponsors. On four occasions during the course of the expedition the draw will be held with different prizes each time.
Draw 3 Prizes

- 1st Prize: A Grappling hook
- 2nd Prize: A Nightstar “No Batteries” Torch
- 3rd Prize: A Ralph Martindale Machete - only available to over 18s
(We will send the machete to a responsible adult relation if the machete is won by a minor. If the minor does not know any responsible adults then we will have to draw again…)
When are the draws?
The dates below are approximate, based on Ed’s progress:
- Draw 1: Pucallpa, Aug 08
- Draw 2: Leticia (Columbia), Dec 08
- Draw 3: Manaus, (Brazil), Jun 09
- Draw 4: At the Amazon mouth (Belem, Brazil), Sep 09
How do I apply?

- you are registered at walkingtheamazon.com
- and you have made a donation to one of our charities

Congratulations to first prize winner, Kate Fairchild, who received the tent, second prize winner Steve Law , who received the torch, and third prize winner Tony Britton, who received the machete.
