Event Details

Thursday 1 May - Thursday 22 May

The installation is part of Ashgate Hospice’s Dragonfly Appeal, which invites supporters to dedicate a dragonfly in memory of someone special in return for a suggested donation of £30, to raise funds for the hospice.

Families and friends are invited to visit the display, which is located on the North Drive, outside the main visitor entrance to the house, until Thursday 22 May.

A total of 2,500 dragonflies have been lovingly designed and handcrafted by local sculptor James Sutton.

After the display ends, those who have made a donation for a dragonfly will be able to collect theirs to keep and treasure in their home or garden as an ongoing tribute and memorial.

To find out more, visit the Ashgate Hospice website.
