In July 2025, a herd of magnificent Elephant sculptures will be stampeding into the city as part of a spectacular public art trail raising vital funds for LOROS Hospice.

Joining the giant Elephants roaming through Leicester will be mini-herds of Baby Elephant sculptures, adopted and decorated by schools and community groups as part of an exciting Learning Programme.

The trail launches in July 2025 and the Elephants will march on to their new homes after the trail ends in September 2025. The giant Elephant sculptures will be auctioned to raise money for LOROS Hospice, helping terminally ill local people and their families at the most difficult times of their lives.

As a school we have chosen to adopt our own mini elephant and a competition will be running throughout the year for designs to decorate the elephant.

In order for us to adopt our elephant and for it to come home to Maplewell Hall School; we need to raise £1000. Please give generously as this is a charity very close to the Maplewell family hearts!
