It’s been an action packed month for sports fanatics – with the World Cup in Brazil, the Common Wealth Games kicking off in Scotland, and of course the infamous Tour de France.

This year, we worked with Tom Hawes from Tilnar Art to set up a line of Birdwoods giraffes in Essex, in support of the Kenyan born British Defending Champion, Chris Froome.

Tom’s enthusiasm and energy in executing the project made it a pleasure to work with him, building on the strong working relationship we built for the National Trust series, which you can read more about here.

Both Tom and I were overwhelmed by the positive reaction to the sculptures – both at the event and online. So a big thank you to everyone who showed their support!
