From July-September 2026, our herd of individually designed magnificent elephant sculptures will bring vibrancy, colour and creative artistry, transforming the streets, parks and open spaces of Slough and Windsor into a glorious open-air gallery. The herd will then gather for a showcase you won’t want to miss at our farewell event! This is your chance to celebrate each unique sculpture before they head to their forever-homes at the big auction, raising vital funds for Thames Hospice.

Be a part of this wonderful event, helping us to deliver significant economic, social and cultural benefits to Slough and Windsor, all while supporting your local Hospice.

Watch this space for exciting ‘spotlights on our artists’!
