This page provides information as we seek to raise £4,000 to fund the TREK TOWARDS EUROPE in 2025. This involves the costs associated with the travel and logistics of transporting the Our Star sculptures, together with organising and administration of some events, although the hosting organisation covers their costs as appropriate.
In the first step towards Europe, the Junior Star will appear at a number of events of the Festival of Europe in Scotland in the period May 3rd to 11th, and will remain in Scotland for the rest of the month of May.
More information is available at:

Next Steps . . .
Subsequently, the Senior Star will be among a number of celebrations for the State Visit of President Macron of France at dates yet to be published, and the EU-UK Summit meeting in London on May 19th. These events aim to celebrate and encourage the UK as it actively moves closer to Europe in areas such as defence, security and, hopefully, youth travel, as part of the response to the dramatic moves in the USA by President Trump.
To show your support for these moves and the celebration of support by Our Star, we encourage you to contribute to the crowdfunder for the costs of travel of both Our Stars, using the link show below.
Our Star Crowdfunding is at Gofundme.
Message of Endorsement:
Anybody can help the Our Star campaigns, you only need to choose how you would like to express your support. When you do, you become a ‘Star Backer’, that is, someone who wants the UK’s star to be back on the Flag of Europe.
