Wessex Internet is encouraging schools in Dorset to sign up to a learning opportunity as part of an art trail coming to Bridport, West Bay and Lyme Regis next spring.
The altnet has become the Learning Programme partner for the Stampede by the Sea project run by Weldmar Hospicecare’s and will rollout resources to participating schools and youth organisations.
Fifty brightly decorated elephants will be arriving in in the area for eight weeks from March 2025, to raise funds and awareness for the Dorset charity.
Each participating school receives their own ‘Baby Elephant’ to design and paint and be included on the trail, and it will be theirs to keep afterwards.
Hector Gibson Fleming, CEO of Wessex Internet, says: “We decided to become Learning Programme partner because we wanted to assist Weldmar to make a long-term impact through their scheme providing essential training and materials for schools.
“This will help teachers to guide young people through difficult periods of their life, such as a bereavement or terminal illness in the family.”
