An incredible art trail coming to Bridport, West Bay and Lyme Regis in spring 2025, supporting Weldmar Hospicecare https://linktr.ee/stampedebythesea
Stampede by the Sea is raising funds and awareness for Weldmar Hospicecare. The Memory Elephant will be part of our art trail in Bridport, West Bay and Lyme Regis in the spring, and you can have the name of a loved one hand painted onto the sculpture.
Instead of going to auction, the Memory Elephant will find a forever home, after the trail, in the grounds of Weldmar`s Inpatient Unit. It will be painted in the colours of the uniforms of those wonderful individuals who provide outstanding care there, and in communities across Dorset in patients` own homes.
Make sure the name of your loved one is included, and create a lasting legacy in their name.

Our shortlisted artists will be the people who really bring Stampede by the Sea to life when it begins on 28th March – their creativity will give the WOW factor to our trail!
We`re proud to have the local area well represented, and yesterday Anissa, Andy and Ellie from our team delivered sculptures to five of our Dorset based artists, who will be working on them in their own studios and spaces.
They`ll be setting to work soon and you`ll see their incredible designs in Bridport, West Bay and Lyme Regis in the spring – we can`t wait!!

Ahead of the Stampede by the Sea art trail beginning in March, our elephant sculptures are beginning to make their way to the brilliant artists who will paint them, and turn them into incredible characters!
A number of them will be painted in the artists` own studios and spaces, while others will be painted onsite at our Logistics Partner, AmSafe Bridport.
We`re thrilled to have a number of locally based artists involved, and here`s Nicola taking delivery – it`s not every day an elephant arrives in your conservatory!
Huge thanks on Nicola`s behalf go to David and the team from JC Phillips and Son in Bridport for all their time and help.

More excitement this week as the local schools signed up for our Learning Programme visited @weldmarhospicecare HQ to pick up their Baby Elephant sculptures, ready to paint for the trail!
A more serious part of our workshop was sharing creative ways to support children experiencing grief and bereavement, hosted by Weldmar`s Patient and Family Support Services team.
Teachers also collected their teaching resources – a range of elephant themed activities across a range of subjects to bring the Stampede by the Sea experience to life.
Our Learning Programme is proudly supported by @wessex.internet.

The first steps toward transforming Bridport, West Bay, and Lyme Regis into a vibrant art trail have been taken. Sponsors and partners gathered at Duke’s Auctioneers to choose the designs that will adorn the majestic elephant sculptures next spring.
Sixty shortlisted designs were on display, each vying for the chance to be brought to life by the talented artists that created them.
Each sponsor had three choices to make, but it wasn’t an easy decision for anybody…
