My Name’5 Doddie Charity Duck Family PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE MAKING YOUR PURCHASE.
Introducing the Doddie Rugby Duckling - AVAILABLE IN STORE ONLY.
The online allocation of the Doddie Rugby Duckling has sold out, there are a limited number available in store only. I do have a small number aside as contingency for online orders so there may be a few become available once all the online orders have been fulfilled and recieved.
The new member of the Doddie Duck clan has at last arrived, with his black and yellow studded boots (a nod to Doddie’s connection to Melrose RFC), his blue backed jersey with the number 5 (representing his international rugby career, earning 61 caps for Scotland), the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation tartan gracing an old style collared rugby jersey and Doddie’s trade mark taped lugs in the form of a Foundation tartan head band, this is the final addition to the family of Doddie Ducks and is only 980 in number.
This duckling is around 19cm, hand carved from sustainable bamboo root, hand painted with a cotton name tag ‘My name’5 Doddie’.
My Name’5 Doddie
The foundation was set up in 2017 after local (to us) former Scotland and British & Irish Lions rugby legend Doddie Weir was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
To date the foundation has raised and given millions of pounds to those affected by MND and is making some real headway into research of the disease thanks to your support.
In July last year the Foundation published their research strategy announcement where together with Costello Medical they will develop a ‘Roadmap to Cure’ you can find out more about other developments, progress and how to help by checking in regularly to www.myname5doddie.co.uk or follow them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
About purchasing the Ducks. Doddie Ducks are a bespoke product and only available to buy through Winter, Spring, Summer & Fall online or in store. All of the money made from these ducks goes to the Foundation, to date we have donated £26,238.64. You can visit the store at 41 Bank Street, Galashiels, TD1 1EP to buy your ducks too.
VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ - The Doddie Duck products are limited to TWO per order as only two fit in the box for £5.95, the box is purpose made for shipping the Ducks, if you would like more than two, you may order more on a separate order/check out. It doesn’t need to be two of the same kind, so long as it is no more in one order.
APPLE PAY/GOOGLE PAY - important note - please make sure the delivery cost of £5.95 is added to the total before checking out. Sometimes faster payment has a glitch which passes the order though without adding delivery, I have tried to limit this by removing the in store collection, my apologies to our local customers who are now no longer able to order online, we have a dedicated in store stock quantity.
Delivery Only - as above, the ducks are now set as delivery only. My apologies to our local customers for the removal of the in store collection option. This is to try and minimise the additional cost and work created. Be assured there is a designated number of the Doddie Ducks for sales in store.
All profits from the sale of the wee wooden wonders goes to the charitable foundation My Name’5 Doddie.
IMPORTANT NOTICE - Time is not of the essence for despatch of the Doddie Duck products since we are a small in number business (just me and one part time staff member) and it is a lengthy process. I will endeavour but cannot guarantee all orders to be shipped within 10 working days, please note the 48hr Tracked Royal Mail service commences when Royal Mail have the shipment.
Cart hijacking! Even though you have the product in your cart, until payment has been confirmed and accepted at checkout, the product may still sell out. I have no control over this, its a mechanism set by most online shopping platforms to prevent ‘hijacking’ where products are left in baskets stopping other shoppers accessing them.
During busy periods it is difficult often to answer correspondence in relation to the Doddie Ducks and I ask you kindly to respect the sale of this product for what it is, a fundraiser. I know I have said it around twelvty billion times but I feel I must offer a reminder - I cannot take orders for ducks - they must be bought either online or in store, I cannot put ducks aside I simply cannot facilitate these requests for this product and so the fairest way is to have a blanket policy.

Thanks for all your support so far, Doddie’s legacy is phenomenal.
