"First on the grid and leaping out of the starting blocks, GulpOil quickly took the lead in the BTFs – the British Touring Frogs – summer 2021 series. Running on Goodfrog tyres, his go faster stripes have given him such a gigantic lead, GulpOil has taken a pitstop in Stockport."

Sponsored by Simon Charles Auctioneers LinkExternal link and created by Ric Pennington it is one of 21 frogs installed across the town centre as part of Stockport's Gigantic Leap Frog Art Trail.

The Gigantic Leap Frog Art Trail from 24th July to 26th September 2021 sees 21 frogs installed across the town centre as well as 17 One Stockport frogs taking up residence across the borough's wards. Arc, a leading arts and mental health charitable organisation LinkExternal link based in the Hat Works, have helped design and paint the giant frog sculptures. The fantastic designs are based on all the great ideas and suggestions put forward by local residents – many focusing on what inspired them during the last 12 months, places they enjoyed exploring and what they feel is important locally. The eventual sale of the frogs will see the proceeds being used at aid St Ann's Hospice.
