Hares About Town
Unity In Community
Sponsors & Logistics Partners for the Hares About Town Event – Summer 2021
Hares About Town is a spectacular ‘Wild-In-Art’ public event that is weaving its way across Southend on Sea this summer.
Hare sculptures, each one individually designed by a different artist, form a free, fun, family-friendly trail of discovery for the Essex public to explore and enjoy!
An app drives visitors around the trail, with rewards available as each hare’s details are ‘collected’. Other mini events will be launched, promising great days out for families and all.
Our hare for the event is the aptly named Harey Biker, decorated with local landmarks by artist Neil Fendell.
While you may not be able to attend the event or get involved in sponsorship, perhaps you could still help support this worthy cause by following the Unity In Community social pages.
£'s Raised For Havens Hospices
Haven’s Hospices
Havens Hospices is very close to our hearts. They provide palliative nursing and supportive care to adults and children living with complex or incurable conditions.
Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, their hospices remained open to care for patients at the end of their life and they supported the NHS by taking patients in from hospitals to free up beds.
Haven’s must raise over £81,000 each week to be there for everyone who needs them. Funding has become more difficult during the pandemic, therefore the Hare’s About Town project is an important part of this year’s fund-raising.
The Logistics
The Atlantic Pacific team provided the logistics of moving over 80 hares and leveretts into position through the night for the launch.
