MP Plant Training
MP Plant Training is a family-run team helping people build exciting careers in construction.
From diggers to cranes, we train beginners and professionals with real, hands-on skills. We believe learning should be fun, friendly and full of opportunity! Proud to support St Oswald’s Hospice, we love getting involved in community events and inspiring the next generation of builders. Who knows… future site managers might be visiting the trail today!

Over 40 Peter Rabbit sculptures will hop, skip and jump in and around Newcastle and North Tyneside in summer 2026. Supporting @stoswaldsuk 💙

Yikes…one of our @officialpeterrabbit sculptures is on the loose! 🐇
But don’t worry, ‘Peter in the Garden’ has been given special paw‑mission to take a little holiday from his friends. He’s hopped down to the @emma_bridgewater Factory, Stoke-On-Trent for a few weeks of mischief and fun! 🥕🐰
This sculpture is decorated in the brand‑new Emma Bridgewater x Peter Rabbit™ pattern. Senior Designer Sophie Gilmour worked with artist @jina_gelder_illustration to bring the original spongeware design to life, inspired by Beatrix Potter’s own stencils and illustrations.
Although Peter in the Garden will officially join our trail in Newcastle and North Tyneside in July, visitors to the Emma Bridgewater factory will be the very first to meet him, snap some photos, and enjoy some springtime fun this half term – including decorating garden‑themed pottery and taking part in a mini trail 🐰🍀
Hop over the link in the bio for more details 👆
PS: This beautiful, one of a kind sculpture will be sold at auction in October. Watch this space for more details soon!

Today is the final painting day for our trail artists! 🎨🐰
Our talented creative crew are putting the finishing touches to their @officialpeterrabbit™ sculptures, transforming blank forms into hare-raising works of art. We popped into the painting space to see their progress, and it was incredible to see so many colourful rabbits lined up and almost ready to hop into the spotlight for their big reveal! ✨
Take a sneak peek at a few of these teasers of what’s to come…👀
Our next art trail, following in the footsteps of Great North Snowdogs, Elmer’s Great North Parade and Shaun on the Tyne, opens this July, this time with Peter Rabbit taking centre stage! All funds raised will support @stoswaldsuk running costs and we are so excited to bring these sculptures to Newcastle and North Tyneside for everyone to enjoy. We think these sculptures are looking absolutely ear-resistible already. 💙
Peter Rabbit™: Tales On The Tyne officially opens on Wednesday 15 July. Keep an eye on our social media for exciting updates, and don’t forget to sign up to our e-newsletter via the link in our bio to be the first to hear the latest news.
We carrot wait to share it all with you! 🥕

This summer, a fluffle of @officialpeterrabbit sculptures will take over the streets, parks and public buildings of Newcastle and North Tyneside – and there is still chance for businesses to be part of the fun! 🐰
Almost all of our large sculptures have now been sponsored but we do have a small amount of beautiful designs still up for grabs. With the artists now busy at work transforming them (Psss… check out some BTS from our latest artist highlight on our profile 👀🎨) time is running out. ⏳
Businesses who sponsor a sculpture will unlock a host of benefits, while supporting the work of @stoswaldsuk as a key part of the region’s most colourful summer mass participation event.
Hear from @sarahmainsresidential, @my_metro, @soprasteria_group and @geabcareers, about why they decided to hop on board as a trail sponsor, in our video from the recent Artist and Sponsor Matching Event. 💙

They came. They hopped. They conquered. 🐰
If there were a @guinnessworldrecords for the fastest group of corporate sponsors hopping across a @crowneplazancl hotel function room to slap stickers on a wall of @officialpeterrabbit designs, we’re fairly sure this lot would be immortalised in print. 🏆
Tales on the Tyne sponsors, we salute your hopping prowess, competitive spirit, and excellent sense of fun. 💙😁
