Lion at Large – The final roar raised £370,000 for The Big Space Cancer Appeal!

Date published: 15 October 2025

From a summer full of colour and creativity on the Lions at Large Trail, to a roaring farewell weekend and last week’s unforgettable auction, we’re celebrating everything this project has achieved – and everything it will go on to do.

Together, you’ve helped raise £370,000 for The Big Space Cancer Appeal; helping to fund a new state-of-the-art facility that will transform cancer care in Gloucestershire. A bigger, brighter home offering the very best environment for treatment, healing and recovery.

We’d love to share a short video that truly speaks to the heart of what Lions at Large has been all about…

We believe you haven’t just supported a trail – you’ve helped build a legacy. You are part of creating a cancer centre that will truly be THE PRIDE OF GLOUCESTERSHIRE!

Thank you to artist Sam Morris for sharing her story and Moss Davies at Singularity Film for creating this beautiful video in support of the charity.
