The charity, which has been active since 1995, has raised over £90 million in support of Bristol Children’s Hospital.

Wallace and Gromit, produced by Aardman studios, have become a much loved part of British culture and are a source of local Bristolian Pride. Statues from previous trails are often bought and then redisplayed in Bristol for the public’s pleasure.
The trail will begin in Bristol on the 30th June and end on the 31st August, with the streets of Bristol to be decorated with these iconic figures.
The statues have been released ahead of the latest instalment of the Wallace & Gromit film series, which has received numerous accolades including three academy awards.
Finally, something to be patriotic about – being able to see Wallace and Gromit on Christmas Day
