#BeMoreSnail. We are very pleased to be taking part in Snailspace this year.

Snailspace is the much-anticipated follow up to the hugely successful Snowdogs by the Sea, which raised £310,000 for Martlets.

Our little friend will be joining us at sessions over the next few weeks before the transformation.  Get your thinking caps on. We'll be asking for your help choosing a name.

Speaking about Snailspace and why giant snails have been chosen to follow on from the hugely popular, Snowdogs, Imelda Glackin, CEO Martlets said:

“The snail sculpture resonates wonderfully with the work we do at Martlets. Our life-changing hospice care helps people do the things they love with the time they have. In this fast-paced cityit’s often hard to remember to slow down and appreciate the things in life that make us smile. The strikingly painted snails across our city will be a constant reminder to take a moment to enjoy the time we have with the people we share our lives with.”

“The snail also carries its home wherever it goes. It’s a comforting reminder that being home or feeling at home is incredibly important to the patients and families we help and support.”
