Lancashire-born, famous Aardman animator and Wallace & Gromit creator Nick Park shared his thoughts on Gromit Unleashed after a dozen sculptures where unveiled by The Grand Appeal at Bristol Harbour. <br /><br />The stunning sculptures were loaded onto the Harbour Steam Train, where Nick Park, sat at the helm of the iconic locomotive in the driver’s cab. <br /><br />The Gromit Unleashed 3 trail will run from Monday 30 June to Sunday 31 August. The trail will be followed by The Greatest Dog Show on Earth ® exhibition before all the sculptures are auctioned to raise money for The Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity. <br /><br />Visitors to the trail can tick off each sculpture via the official Gromit Unleashed 3 app, available on Apple and Android from Monday 30 June. A map of all sculptures will also be available from various locations around the city. <br /><br />The partnership between The Grand Appeal and Aardman was first conceived in 1995 to help raise the money to build the Bristol Children’s Hospital on Upper Maudlin Street, Bristol. <br /><br />Since then, £90 million has been raised for The Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity and Cots for Tots, the dedicated charity for the Neonatal Intensive Care Ward at St Michael’s Hospital.
