The stoneware ceramic flags will stand as a lasting installation bringing the Shropshire Hills to the people of Telford and Wrekin. The overwhelmingly positive feedback, combined with the commitment from funders to continue their support, shows that the project has laid strong foundations for future creative and community work.

“It was absolutely magical from start to finish. The views along the way were breathtaking, and the minibus journey itself felt like part of the adventure. I found myself really connecting with nature throughout the experience, and it was clear that the clients felt the same.
There was genuine sense of awe and appreciation from everyone, which was lovely to witness. It's not everyday you get to be part of something that feels so special and uplifting .
I truly believe everyone walked away with something valuable- whether it was a moment of stillness, inspiration, or simply a deeper connection to the environment.
Please thank everyone involved in organising such a memorable outing. It was a standout experience.”
“These projects provide unmeasurable benefit for our customers and staff alike. A wonderful way for us to have the opportunity to work with our customers in this more mindful and holistic way.
These sessions provide a platform to do so. Yes, I am very grateful to be part of this project as I enjoy every bit of it.”
“It was amazing and beautiful poignant and inspired. I was privileged to be part of it.”
