The moving art installation has arrived in Great Malvern, bringing with it a powerful message of remembrance, reflection, and road safety.

The RoadPeace Doves, part of the national Peace in the Park campaign, are now on display in Priory Park until 27 June, thanks to a partnership between Malvern Hills District Council and RoadPeace, the UK charity for road crash victims.

The installation features a series of doves — RoadPeace’s emblem of peace, love, and hope — each bearing the photo of a person tragically killed in a road traffic collision. It serves as a striking reminder of the human cost of road crashes and the urgent need to reduce preventable deaths and injuries on our roads.

These symbolic doves were crafted by young people involved in driving-related crime as part of their reparation work with Birmingham Youth Justice Service, alongside bereaved family members and colleagues from CFG Law, one of the campaign’s key partners.

To further engage the community, an Outreach Day will take place on Saturday, 7 June from 10am to 1pm at the Bandstand in Priory Park. Lucy Harrison, RoadPeace West Mercia Group Coordinator, will be joined by Community Safety officers from Malvern Hills District Council to discuss the installation, share information about support services, and encourage action on road danger reduction.

This installation is not only a tribute to lives lost, but also a call for change, reminding us all of the shared responsibility to create safer roads for everyone.
