“It was a real honour to be invited by Addenbrooke’s Charitable Trust to design the Hero Panda. Having enjoyed Wild in Art trails with my daughter, it felt especially meaningful to be part of one so close to home. Translating my illustration work onto a sculptural form was a unique and rewarding challenge, and being able to reflect the character of Cambridge in the design made it even more special. Seeing my daughter’s excitement for the finished piece has been a highlight – and I can’t wait to see the trail come to life.”
