A special Tail of Tribute has been lined up to be part of the Great Tail Trail when it arrives in the area next year.
Waves of Love, from trail organiser Julia’s House children’s hospice, is designed by artist Judy Guillery (Judee Tree Art) and sponsored by Nicholas O’Hara Funeral Directors.
The ‘Tail of Tribute’ will feature the names of loved ones on their own hand-painted fishtail scale across the whole sculpture. There are just 600 of the tribute scales available for a donation to Julia’s House.
“Waves of Love will be on display for eight weeks throughout The Great Tail Trail from 5 April 2025, which means you’ll be able to visit the trail and spot your special someone’s name,” explains Laura Maidment, Public Fundraising Officer for Julia’s House.
“Nicholas O’Hara Funeral Directors is truly honoured to sponsor the ‘Waves of Love’ tail as part of The Great Tail Trail,” says Anthony O’Hara, Business Principal and Funeral Plan Specialist. “We have a longstanding relationship with Julia’s House, working together to support families during their most challenging end of life moments.
The Great Tail Trail will raise funds and awareness of the important role Julia’s House plays in the local community.
