4 large elephants and 9 small elephants marched into Boldmere overnight on Saturday 29th June / Sunday 30th June ready for their official launch on Monday 1st July as part of March of the Elephants.

March of the Elephants is an ele-fantastic art trail for showcasing 30 large elephants and over 40 mini elephants across Boldmere, Sutton Coldfield, Lichfield and Tamworth organised by St Giles Hospice in partnership with Wild-in-Art. Boldmere will be the main location in Sutton Coldfield with 4 elephants and 10 mini elephants.  At the end of the trail, the large elephants will be auctioned to raise money for St Giles Hospice.
