Take the Trunks across the Thames trail home with a brand-new Top Trumps pack

DATE

August 5, 2026

Fans of the Trunks across the Thames elephant trail can continue the adventure long after their visit, with a new Top Trumps pack launching this August, to raise money for Thames Hospice.


Visitors to the popular Trunks across the Thames art trail will soon be able to put their favourite elephant sculptures head-to-head, as a brand-new Top Trumps pack launches on Monday 10 August 2026.

Created to celebrate Thames Hospice’s first-ever public art trail, the special edition card game features the colourful elephant sculptures that have been delighting visitors across Windsor, Eton and Slough this summer.

Inspired by the classic family game, the pack allows players to compare the trail’s much-loved elephants through a series of fun facts and unique statistics, offering a new way to discover the herd while testing their knowledge of the trail.

Jane Symmons, Director of Fundraising at Thames Hospice, said: “We’re delighted to bring Trunks across the Thames to life in a whole new way through this exciting partnership with Top Trumps.

“The trail has captured the imagination of thousands of people this summer, and now families can continue the adventure at home while discovering even more about their favourite elephants.

“Every pack sold helps support the vital work of Thames Hospice, so it’s a fantastic way to take home a lasting memento of the trail while making a real difference to local people and their families.”

The Trunks across the Thames trail, created by Thames Hospice in partnership with Wild in Art, features more than 90 decorated elephant sculptures displayed across Windsor, Eton and Slough until Sunday 13 September 2026. Following the trail, the large sculptures will be auctioned to help raise funds for hospice care.

The new Top Trumps pack will be available to buy from 10 August at Thames Hospice shops in Windsor, Slough, Langley and Maidenhead, as well as at the hospice itself and online.
