Your support matters
βOne of the things I realised as a carer was thatΒ St Giles Hospice is a charity.Β The wonderful advice, guidance, help and support that we had comes from the generosity of others.β β Craig Johnson, Sutton Coldfield. No matter how big or small, donations to support St Giles Hospice are always welcome. Thank you.

Jenny has developed her own style with Wild in Art sculptures – wrapping faces and portraits around the body – and now has a series of sculptures designed this way. They are bold, bright, and eye-catching and use a limited colour palette to stand out.

Did you know a baby elephant is called a calf? Normally when we think of a calf our head goes straight to a baby cow. Here, the elephant is transformed into Connie the Calf.

We want to say a huge thank you to James Lewis, a Lichfield local with a passion for fundraising for St Giles Hospice, in memory of his dad π§‘
James took on a mammoth challenge last weekend by running a total distance of 82 miles in 24 hours – whilst blindfolded! ππΌββοΈ
In preparation for this event, James took it upon himself to run the whole distance of our March of the Elephants trail in just one day! He covered Lichfield, Tamworth and Sutton Coldfield and unlocked as many sculptures as he could! π
Thank you for your continued support James, it means a lot to everyone at St Giles Hospice 𧑠…
