‘Follow That Duck!’ was organised by Wild at Art and consisted of 30 large Rubber Ducks designed and painted by a host of talented artists – and smaller Rubber Duckling sculptures, decorated by local schools and community groups. The sculptures have formed an art trail for the last ten weeks – bringing colour, creativity and a real talking point to Hastings and Rother! Incredible Eggs was delighted to supply fabulous ducky educational resources to all participating schools and community groups.
This quacking event raised vital funds for St Michael’s Hospice. Supporting approximately 1,700 people per year, the hospice focuses on enabling people with advanced, serious, life-limiting illness to live the remainder of their lives as fully as possible. The Hospice needs to raise over £14,400 per day from voluntary sources.
This month the rubber ducklings will be returned to the schools and community groups who created the fabulous pieces of artwork, a lasting memento to be celebrated for years to come. The large rubber ducks and two special ducklings will appear at the Hook a Duck Auction in Hastings on Friday 7 th October, raising money for the Hospice.
