A new nestling has been introduced to the 80-strong Waddle of Worcester art trail.

Organisers have unveiled a shiny new addition, named ‘Ice-Ickle’, which will be part of an auction at the end of the event alongside 40 giant feathered friends.

Visitors keen on meeting Ice-Ickle can head over to the Piston Distillery at Diglis Waterside & Marina, where they can also pick up a free, limited edition sticker before the trail, organised and raising money for St Richard's Hospice, closes on Sunday, September 15.

Ice-Ickle is amongst 40 other baby penguins adorning city centre businesses.

Sara Matthews, business development manager for St Richard’s Hospice, said: "We’re so excited to introduce the coolest little fella on the trail.

"Fully reflective - from beak to foot - this penguin represents the work of the St Richard’s Hospice Family Support Team who use reflection to support loved ones, foster insight and empower families during their grief journey.

“Ice-Ickle is the only baby penguin which will be up for auction this October.

"We hope bidders will dig deep to support St Richard’s and secure this little nestling a forever home.”

The Piston Distillery is celebrating the arrival of their new resident by creating a new flavour of ice cream.

For every scoop of ‘Vanilla + Blue Ripple Swirl with Popping Candy’ purchased, the company will donate to the hospice.

The distillery has also introduced Piston Penguin Vodka, from which a portion of the sales will go towards the hospice.

Grace Stringer, managing director of Piston, said: "When we heard Ice-Ickle was looking for a place to stand proud before being auctioned, we knew we must take him under our wing and look after him.

"We’ve even created a new ice cream to celebrate his arrival, the ice cream has a special twist with popping candy for that icy crunch.

"We have also hand painted penguins onto our vodka bottles too and donations will be made with each purchase."

Those keen on meeting Ice-Ickle can drop by the distillery from 9am to 5pm on weekdays and 10.30am to 5pm at weekends to get their free sticker.

The stickers will be available from today (Tuesday, August 20).
