Thank you for visiting our JustGiving page!
We are very excited to announce that we are proud sponsors of Shaun in the City. Like the Gromit Unleashed public arts trail in the summer of 2013, Shaun in the City will see 70 giant sculptures of Aardman Animations’ Shaun the Sheep popping up all over the city.
Shaun the Sheep made his debut in the Oscar-winning 1995 Wallace & Gromit film, ‘A Close Shave,’ and hit the big screen earlier this year with the release of ‘Shaun the Sheep the Movie.’ Shaun the Sheep was voted the nation’s favourite BBC children’s TV character from the last 70 years in a recent Radio Times poll.
All money raised from this art trail will be donated to The Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity. Bristol Children’s Hospital is one the UK’s leading children’s hospitals treating patients from across the South West, South Wales and beyond with life-threatening illnesses and serves as the pediatric intensive care centre for the whole South West region.
The Gromit Unleashed trail raised over £2.3 million for The Grand Appeal and St John’s are thrilled to be involved in another fantastic fundraising opportunity.
We believe in giving back to the local community and we organise many fundraising events for worthy causes throughout the year. We are delighted, therefore, to be sponsoring our very own Shaun in the City Art Trail. This is a fun and quirky way to raise much needed funds for the Bristol Children’s Hospital.
