Puppy versions of Gromit ready to be decorated

SMALL sculptures of Gromit have been delivered to Bristol to be decorated by schools and community groups.

Gromit Unleashed will see giant sculptures of the loveable dog springing up across the city this summer.

But children will be able to get in on the act by decorating half-sized versions of the statues.

Nearly 50 schools have already signed up to be part of Gromit Unleashed to get involved in the project, which will benefit Bristol Children's Hospital charity the Grand Appeal.

Lauren Vincent, fundraising manager, said: "The Gromits come with an educational pack which includes animation and art work.

"It's cross-curricular, going across every single subject, so children will not only have fun decorating Gromit they are learning as well. It is very beneficial all-round.

"We are also encouraging the schools to do further fundraising as well, doing cake sales and sponsored events or making a donation in exchange for their thumb-print or star on their Gromit."
