WOULD YOU VOLUNTEER WITH US?
We have some amazing people volunteering for Stampede by the Sea. Just as with anything Weldmar Hospicecare does, individuals who give their time play a crucial role in helping things happen.
We have some `Herd Hero` shifts available in Bridport towards the end of the trail. This role involves providing the sculptures with a clean and a little TLC if needed, and reporting any problems or damage. Youβll also answer questions about the trail or Weldmar Hospicecare, or direct people on where to find the answers they need on the app or website. Working in pairs, the shifts are 10am-12pm and 1-3pm.
We`d love to hear from you if you`d be interested in finding out more. Please click the contact button to get in touch.

SCULPTURE #7: THE POWER OF PLANKTON
Located alongside the iconic beach huts in West Bay, The Power of Plankton has been created for Stampede by the Sea by Bridport based artist, Terry Whitworth and is sponsored by @inthebagpr.
Terry says: "This design celebrates the diverse, colourful and beautiful microscopic organisms that live in our oceans. There are an estimated half a million species, essential to other life on Earth. Highly sensitive to the slightest changes in their environment, they must be protected at all costs. They of course share an awesome beauty with one of the Earthβs largest mammals."
Collect The Power of Plankton on the Stampede by the Sea app, and you could win a family ticket to Weymouth Sealife Adventure Park, courtesy of In The Bag PR! Just tap in the four digit code you`ll find at the sculpture, and find details of the reward.
The Power of Plankton will join all of the elephants in our herd at our Farewell Event at Dorchester Corn Exchange this June, and you can bid for it at our Auction on June 19th.
Find out more about the sculpture and artist on our website, as well as how to get tickets to our Farewell Event and register your interest in the Auction.
