Little Amal is arriving in Liverpool tomorrow as part of a powerful procession past some of the city's legendary landmarks.
The giant puppet, which stands at 3.5 metres tall, was first seen by the public in 2021 as the centrepiece of a performance art project named The Walk. Amal is a partly-animatronic puppet who has travelled more than 8,000km in support of refugees.
Little Amal, designed in the image of a Syrian refugee child and made by the talented 'War Horse' creators Handspring Puppet Company, aims to focus attention on the plight of refugees while conflict rages on across the globe. Now, Little Amal is en route to Liverpool.
