A new sculpture of lovable cartoon character Shaun the Sheep has been unveiled as part of an upcoming art trail.

The sculpture, which was revealed at the Gallagher Stadium in Maidstone, has been named Roaming Shaun and will travel all over Kent throughout the summer.

It’s part of the free Shaun the Sheep in the Heart of Kent trail, which launches in the county town on Saturday, June 29 to help raise funds and awareness for the Heart of Kent Hospice in Aylesford.

Unlike the 50 other Shaun the Sheep sculptures, which have been designed by international and local artists and will remain static, this one will be popping up at a number of attractions over the coming months.

Visitors can spot the sculpture, which has been decorated with the sporting theme to celebrate the Olympics, at the Kent County Show, East Malling’s Picnic in the Park, the Maidstone River Festival and more.

You can find out where the sculpture will be visiting here.

You can also download the free app from June 29 and get a map of the trail to follow once the sculptures are in place.
