Itโs been so lovely to receive such amazing feedback about the Bulls in the City trail – and today weโre sharing these incredi-bull throwback pics from 4 year old Tilly ๐๐
Tillyโs mom said: โThank you for the lovely trail this year. My 4 year old daughter and myself collected our last 3 bulls the day before the event finished. It was our first event like this! She is excited to do another one soon.โ
Tillyโs favourite bulls were Cadbully and Dare to Disco, as well as Bumble Bull by Warren Farm Primary School where she could spot her name โ๏ธ
We might be blue the summer is over but weโre so excited for the future! ๐ thank you again for all the support and for everyone who joined the herd.
We don`t know if we`ll ever get over how incredi-bull auction night was last Thursday! ๐ฑ
To have raised over ยฃ150,000 for Birmingham Hospice is a wonderful feeling and everyone at Herd HQ is feeling very proud and grateful for the support.
We`ve enjoyed looking back through the photos and celebrating this epic project! ๐
Find out more about the winning bids on our news blog.
We`re beyond excited to share that the Bulls in the City auction raised an INCREDI-BULL ยฃ156,100 ๐
We had some late donations come in which meant the grand total from last night was more than we expected.
Huge thanks to everyone who placed bids, showed support, and helped these bold bovines find new pastures – your contributions made this a moo-ving success! ๐
Every pound raised last night will go towards helping to make every moment matter for patients and families being cared for by Birmingham Hospice .
We can`t thank every single person enough – to those people in the room, online, watching the live stream or just someone who has supported our trail over the last two years. THANK YOU!
Huge thanks for last night go to: ๐จ@auctionhousebirminghambc for being our Auction Partner – Chris Edwards was a fantastic auctioneer we`re so grateful! ๐ฅ๏ธ @millenniumpoint for being our Event Partner and letting us host our auction in their immersive auditorium. ๐ฏ @wildinart for supporting our project team and being wonder-bull trail partners! ๐ค @pje122 for being the best host we could ask for – and he even bought a bull! ๐ @rhg_birmingham for moving our large bull herd out like a logistical dream. ๐ค Karen, our marvellous Clinical Nurse Specialist, and supporter John Harris who took to the stage last night to speak on behalf of our charity and tell their stories.
Our magnificent herd go under the hammer at 7pm to raise vital funds for Birmingham Hospice.
It costs more than ยฃ1.5 million to run our hospice for one single month. We are only part funded by the NHS and the rest of our income needs to come from fundraising and voluntary donations – just like the money raised at our auction.
So dig deep, bid big and let`s raise money for Birmingham Hospice! ๐ค
To watch the auction or bid online, head over to our Auction Partner`s website from 6.30pm and there will be a link to watch live: www.auctionhouse.co.uk/birmingham
A huge thank you to @auctionhousebirminghambc and @millenniumpoint for being our Auction and Event Partners – it`s great to have you part of the herd! ๐
Ay we! Look at this bostin` bovine! ๐ @frankontheradio
This little beauty`s off to the Bulls in the City auction this Thursday โ and itโs been painted by none other than Frank Skinner himself! ๐จ
Thatโs right โ the Black Countryโs own funny man swapped the mic for a paintbrush.
Our friends in the Black Country will love this bull that`s been decked out in the region`s flag. Black, white, red and them iconic chains โ itโs flying the local colours with pride!
If yow love a bit of local pride, a bit of art, or just wanna own summat painted by a telly legend, get this in your diary. Itโs one of a kind โ and just like the Black Country, itโs got a lotta character.
You can bid online or in person by attending the event (auction starts at 7pm at Millennium Point). More info here: www.birminghamhospice.org.uk/get-involved/fundraise/events/auction/
