**From Snoopy to puffins, there’s a whole host of sculptures to look out for in 
art trail events across the UK this year, all raising funds for good causes. **

With [last year](https://fundraising.co.uk/2021/07/20/fundraising-arts-sculpture-trails-to-enjoy-this-summer/)
seeing hares, bears, cows, rockets and more brightening up towns around the UK, 
here’s a quick look at a selection of 2022’s trails.

#### Dog’s Trust & A Dog’s Trail

Dog’s Trust is this year presenting A Dog’s Trail across Cardiff and South Wales
between 8 April and 5 June, with Wild in Art.

Featuring Snoopy, [A Dog’s Trail](https://adogstrail.org.uk/) will celebrate Dog’s
Trust’s new rehoming centre in Cardiff with over 50 uniquely designed Snoopy sculptures
to be seen around the city centre. Each one will be sponsored by a business or individual
and have its own tale to tell, many showcasing Cardiff’s artistic talent while celebrating
the vibrance, culture and creativity that the city has to offer.

Schools are also getting involved by adopting and designing their very own Snoopy
sculptures.

At the end of the trail, the large Snoopy sculptures will be auctioned to raise 
funds for Dog’s Trust. The event is presented by Dogs Trust in partnership with 
Wild in Art and Peanuts, owners of Snoopy.

#### Hospice Isle of Man & The Big Splash

From May to September 2022, Hospice Isle of Man is unleashing its next Wild in Art
Trail on the Isle of Man.

[The Big Splash](https://thebigsplash.im/) will see a large pod of individually 
designed dolphin sculptures placed around the Isle of Man for everyone to see and
enjoy. The sculpture will form a 12-week trail around the island’s most spectacular
coastal locations and open spaces.

With its 2019 trail Wallabies Gone Wild raising more than £250,000 at auction, Hospice
Isle of Man is keen to make the 2022 art trail an even bigger success. As well as
the large dolphin sculptures, there will again be smaller dolphin sculptures to 
be created as part of the education programme.

For ten weeks from June the streets, gardens and beaches of Hastings, St Leonards
and Bexhill on Sea will be brought to life by a flock of 30 rubber duck sculptures.

St Michael’s Hospice’s [Follow that Duck](https://followthatduck.co.uk/) trail is
again a Wild in Art event and will see each giant duck hand decorated with individually
created designs, many of which will showcase the wealth of artistic talent within
East Sussex.  In addition, rubber ducklings will also be making their nests inside
local shops and businesses.

#### Highland Hospice & The Great Heilan Coo Trail

2022 will see a herd of Hospice [Highland Coos](https://highlandhospice.org/how-you-can-help/coo-trail)
hit the streets for Highland Hospice’s second Highland-wide art trail. From April
to August 2022, 22 Heilan Coos will be grazing in every town that has a Highland
Hospice Shop. There will also be a coo scavenger hunt with mini-coos hidden in each
of its 14 shops.

The hospice has once again joined forces with local wildlife sculptor, Scott Gleed,
to create the coos. Each coo and mini-coo will be sponsored by a local business 
and painted by a local artist, selected through an open competition.

#### Burton and District Mind & The Big Burton Carousel

Burton and District Mind has been selected by [The Big Burton Carousel](https://www.burtonmind.co.uk/post/the-big-burton-carousel-sculpture-trail-2022)
as its chosen charity for this year’s sculpture trail, which will see 30 sculptures
of galloping funfair styled horses designed by artists left in iconic and popular
parts of the Burton Upon Trent area for 10 weeks starting from June 2022.

This is Burton’s second art trail and follows 2019’s Swan Trail. It’s being brought
to the town by Making Trails and East Staffordshire Borough Council, and supported
by a team of artists, businesses and local organisations.

These look great! A little addition, the \#nothnottsnectartrail by Making Trails
launches tomorrow and runs for 22 weeks across Retford, Worksop, Tuxford and Harworth.
Auctioned sculptures will raise funds for the Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals
NHS Foundation Trust.
