AUCTION VENUE
Many thanks to the Dundee Rep Theatre for hosting tonight’s
Oor Wullie Bucket Trail Charity Auction.
ARCHIE FOUNDATION
The ARCHIE Foundation was first formed in Aberdeen in 2000 to raise money to ‘make the difference’ between an excellent new children’s hospital planned by NHS Grampian and a world-class facility with many extras which would make the experience of children being in hospital better for both the children and their families.
Ever since, the ARCHIE Foundation has supported local sick children and their families when they have needed it the most. We have funded numerous important staff and services for young patients as well as many pieces of specialist equipment, emergency grants and much more.
In 2011 the charity began a campaign in the Highlands to raise £2million towards creating a new Highland Children’s Unit at Raigmore Hospital, Inverness. In April this year that unit opened its doors and has transformed the environment of hospital care for children in the Highlands.
In 2014 The ARCHIE Foundation was invited to become the official charity of Tayside Children’s Hospital, which it was delighted to do. The first project for involvement was to address the urgent need for additional paediatric operating capacity at the hospital, which currently only has one operating theatre. It in this appeal to which the proceeds of this auction will be donated.

WILD IN ART
Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail
– ‘A Braw Event”
Wild in Art would like to thank The ARCHIE Foundation for their extraordinarily hard work and vision in bringing Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail to life in Dundee, and DC Thomson for lending us the lovable wee character ‘Oor Wullie’ to help the charity to raise essential funds for Tayside Children’s Hospital.
Celebrating the 80th anniversary of our cheeky rascal, Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail has beautifully captured the cultural renaissance of the City of Dundee. It has brought the creativity and enjoyment of quality public art to thousands of people whilst raising awareness of the work of The ARCHIE Foundation on behalf of Tayside Children’s Hospital in a truly memorable experience for all.
Since 2008, Wild in Art has been one of the leading creative producers of spectacular, mass-appeal public art events and education projects which harness the power of creativity and make art an everyday activity. From crashes of rhinos in Sydney to Commonwealth Games Clyde mascots in Glasgow and Wild Dolphins in Aberdeen, Wild in Art events have animated cities and towns and enthralled people the world over.
It has been an exciting experience for us all to experience the huge popularity of Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail. The way all the sculptures have developed into characters in their local communities and have been embraced by the whole city has been very touching. Now it’s time for these wonderful sculptures to find new homes. The proceeds from the auction will go to support the charitable work of The ARCHIE Foundation in raising £2millon towards creating a new twin operating theatre surgical suite for Tayside Children’s Hospital. This project, when complete, will transform the hospital experience for thousands of local sick children for many years to come.

Oor Wullie’s ON TOUR!
We were delighted that 12 Oor Wullie’s went on tour. They visited seven different cities across Scotland as well as railway stations with the aid of our sponsor Visit Scotland #scotspirit.
The tour took the appeal of The Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail beyond the city of Dundee to a wider audience around the country.
We do hope that everyone enjoyed the tour, especially if they couldn’t manage to get to Dundee to experience the full Oor Wullie Bucket Trail.
Thanks go to Arnold Clark, The Speratus Group, UNESCO, V & A, Signature Pub Group,
Wild in Art, Visit Scotland, Sunday Post
for their efforts in making the tour a reality.
Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail
SCHOOLS’ PROGRAMME!
OVERVIEW
Thank you to all of the schools, nurseries, clubs and groups in Dundee and Tayside who are taking part in the Citywide Oor Wullie Bucket Trail’s education programme.
Over 1,000 children spent many months experiencing and enjoying the magic of the visual arts while undertaking their own fundraising activities for The ARCHIE Foundation Tayside Appeal.
An added bonus, the project links in well to the curriculum too, mixing creativity with learning about Scottish culture and iconic characters like Oor Wullie! Oor Wullie is very well known by children across the city, with his famous phrases being used to teach youngsters all about traditional Scot’s language.
More than 30 miniature sculptures formed their own Bucket Trail across the city in libraries and visitor attractions, showcasing the creativity of the young people of Tayside, before being returned to schools for them to keep.

WE ALL LOVED OOR WULLIE’S BUCKET TRAIL
(TESTIMONIALS FROM BUCKET TRAIL VISITORS)
“Thanks so much. The trail is awesome to say the least, well done. My extended family have picked it up in America and Australia too - great for Dundee.”
Graeme Heatherwick
“My husband and I started the bucket trail tonight and what a laugh we had. We managed to find 11 and got speaking to people who were out doing the same. My husband really likes the iron man one and I like the Harry potter one. The Woodlands one in Camperdown is cool too. What a great idea and raising money for a fab charity.”
Jennifer Mills
“My son and his friends had been asking about the trail and they are 14! If you can get the teenagers away from the Xbox etc then you deserve a medal!”
Evelyn Cairns
“I just wanted to reiterate how wonderful it was to see the Oor Wullies today. My mother was born and raised in Dundee and the Oor Wullies were a fantastic opportunity for my mum to take me and my two children - Clara, 15, and Conall, 11 - on a trip down memory lane as we drove around looking for the Wullies. We have never done that before as a 3-generation family and it was so, so special. We have a lot to thank the Wullies for today, thank you so very much.”
KIRSTIN GOVE
“Best idea ever! Kids (and parents) are loving the hunt! Great family time making memories!”

respect of death or personal injury caused by the negligent
acts or omissions of the charities or the Seller.

consent to bid as agent for another party. Bidders are
personally liable for their bid and are jointly and severally
liable with their principal if bidding as agent. (b) The
charities advises Bidders to attend the auction if possible
but will seek to carry out proxy and telephone bids that are

endeavouring to ensure that the first received of identical
written bids has priority.
6. Conduct of the Auction (a) Unless otherwise specified,

the auction. (b) The auctioneer has discretion at any time
to refuse any bid, withdraw any lot, re-offer a lot for sale
(including after the fall of the hammer) if he believes there
may be error or dispute, and take such other action as he
reasonably thinks fit. (c) The auctioneer will commence
and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he
considers appropriate and is entitled to place a bid or series
of bids on behalf of the charities up to the Reserve on the
lot, without indicating he is doing so and whether or not
other bids are placed. (d) Subject to Condition 6(b), the
contract between the Buyer and the charities is concluded
on the striking of the auctioneer’s hammer, whereupon
the Buyer becomes liable to pay the Purchase Price. (e) Any
post-auction sale of lots offered at auction shall incorporate
these Conditions as if sold in the auction room.
7. Payment and Collection (a) Your obligation to pay the
purchase price arises when the lot is knocked down to you

or debit card. If you do not pay any sums due in accordance
with this clause, the seller will have the rights to withhold
the lot. (c) Title in a purchased lot will not pass until the
charities has received the Purchase Price for that lot in
cleared funds. The charities are not obliged to release a lot

full purchase price in cleared funds. Failure to collect a lot
within 5 days of the full purchase price in cleared funds

result in the charities retaining the title of the lot and the
decision regarding this will be at the charity’s discretion.

sole responsibility for insurance) from collection or after 5
days of the purchase price being received by the charities

AUCTION VENUE
Many thanks to the Dundee Rep Theatre for hosting tonight’s
Oor Wullie Bucket Trail Charity Auction.
ARCHIE FOUNDATION
The ARCHIE Foundation was first formed in Aberdeen in 2000 to raise money to ‘make the difference’ between an excellent new children’s hospital planned by NHS Grampian and a world-class facility with many extras which would make the experience of children being in hospital better for both the children and their families.
Ever since, the ARCHIE Foundation has supported local sick children and their families when they have needed it the most. We have funded numerous important staff and services for young patients as well as many pieces of specialist equipment, emergency grants and much more.
In 2011 the charity began a campaign in the Highlands to raise £2million towards creating a new Highland Children’s Unit at Raigmore Hospital, Inverness. In April this year that unit opened its doors and has transformed the environment of hospital care for children in the Highlands.
In 2014 The ARCHIE Foundation was invited to become the official charity of Tayside Children’s Hospital, which it was delighted to do. The first project for involvement was to address the urgent need for additional paediatric operating capacity at the hospital, which currently only has one operating theatre. It in this appeal to which the proceeds of this auction will be donated.

Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail
– ‘A Braw Event”
Wild in Art would like to thank The ARCHIE Foundation for their extraordinarily hard work and vision in bringing Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail to life in Dundee, and DC Thomson for lending us the lovable wee character ‘Oor Wullie’ to help the charity to raise essential funds for Tayside Children’s Hospital.
Celebrating the 80th anniversary of our cheeky rascal, Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail has beautifully captured the cultural renaissance of the City of Dundee. It has brought the creativity and enjoyment of quality public art to thousands of people whilst raising awareness of the work of The ARCHIE Foundation on behalf of Tayside Children’s Hospital in a truly memorable experience for all.
Since 2008, Wild in Art has been one of the leading creative producers of spectacular, mass-appeal public art events and education projects which harness the power of creativity and make art an everyday activity. From crashes of rhinos in Sydney to Commonwealth Games Clyde mascots in Glasgow and Wild Dolphins in Aberdeen, Wild in Art events have animated cities and towns and enthralled people the world over.
It has been an exciting experience for us all to experience the huge popularity of Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail. The way all the sculptures have developed into characters in their local communities and have been embraced by the whole city has been very touching. Now it’s time for these wonderful sculptures to find new homes. The proceeds from the auction will go to support the charitable work of The ARCHIE Foundation in raising £2millon towards creating a new twin operating theatre surgical suite for Tayside Children’s Hospital. This project, when complete, will transform the hospital experience for thousands of local sick children for many years to come.

Oor Wullie’s ON TOUR!
We were delighted that 12 Oor Wullie’s went on tour. They visited seven different cities across Scotland as well as railway stations with the aid of our sponsor Visit Scotland #scotspirit.
The tour took the appeal of The Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail beyond the city of Dundee to a wider audience around the country.
We do hope that everyone enjoyed the tour, especially if they couldn’t manage to get to Dundee to experience the full Oor Wullie Bucket Trail.
Thanks go to Arnold Clark, The Speratus Group, UNESCO, V & A, Signature Pub Group,
Wild in Art, Visit Scotland, Sunday Post
for their efforts in making the tour a reality.
Oor Wullie’s Bucket Trail
SCHOOLS’ PROGRAMME!
OVERVIEW
Thank you to all of the schools, nurseries, clubs and groups in Dundee and Tayside who are taking part in the Citywide Oor Wullie Bucket Trail’s education programme.
Over 1,000 children spent many months experiencing and enjoying the magic of the visual arts while undertaking their own fundraising activities for The ARCHIE Foundation Tayside Appeal.
An added bonus, the project links in well to the curriculum too, mixing creativity with learning about Scottish culture and iconic characters like Oor Wullie! Oor Wullie is very well known by children across the city, with his famous phrases being used to teach youngsters all about traditional Scot’s language.
More than 30 miniature sculptures formed their own Bucket Trail across the city in libraries and visitor attractions, showcasing the creativity of the young people of Tayside, before being returned to schools for them to keep.

WE ALL LOVED OOR WULLIE’S BUCKET TRAIL
(TESTIMONIALS FROM BUCKET TRAIL VISITORS)
“Thanks so much. The trail is awesome to say the least, well done. My extended family have picked it up in America and Australia too - great for Dundee.”
Graeme Heatherwick
“My husband and I started the bucket trail tonight and what a laugh we had. We managed to find 11 and got speaking to people who were out doing the same. My husband really likes the iron man one and I like the Harry potter one. The Woodlands one in Camperdown is cool too. What a great idea and raising money for a fab charity.”
Jennifer Mills
“My son and his friends had been asking about the trail and they are 14! If you can get the teenagers away from the Xbox etc then you deserve a medal!”
Evelyn Cairns
“I just wanted to reiterate how wonderful it was to see the Oor Wullies today. My mother was born and raised in Dundee and the Oor Wullies were a fantastic opportunity for my mum to take me and my two children - Clara, 15, and Conall, 11 - on a trip down memory lane as we drove around looking for the Wullies. We have never done that before as a 3-generation family and it was so, so special. We have a lot to thank the Wullies for today, thank you so very much.”
KIRSTIN GOVE
“Best idea ever! Kids (and parents) are loving the hunt! Great family time making memories!”

Business; (III) accepts responsibility to any Bidders in respect
of acts or omissions (whether negligent or otherwise) by
the charities in connection with the conduct of auctions
or for any matter relating to the sale of any lot. (b) Without
prejudice to Condition 4(b), any claim against the charities
or the Seller by a Bidder is limited to the Purchase Price with
regard to that lot. Neither the charities nor the Seller shall
under any circumstances be liable for any consequential
losses. (c) None of this Condition 4 shall exclude or
limit the charities liability in respect of any fraudulent
misrepresentation made by the charities or the Seller, or in
respect of death or personal injury caused by the negligent
acts or omissions of the charities or the Seller.
5. Bidding at Auction (a) The charities have absolute
discretion to refuse admission to the auction. Bidders act

consent to bid as agent for another party. Bidders are
personally liable for their bid and are jointly and severally
liable with their principal if bidding as agent. (b) The
charities advises Bidders to attend the auction if possible
but will seek to carry out proxy and telephone bids that are
in pound sterling and that in the charity’s opinion, are clear
and received sufficiently in advance of the sale of the lot,
endeavouring to ensure that the first received of identical
written bids has priority.
6. Conduct of the Auction (a) Unless otherwise specified,
all lots are offered subject to a Reserve, which shall be
no higher than the low pre-sale estimate at the time of
the auction. (b) The auctioneer has discretion at any time
to refuse any bid, withdraw any lot, re-offer a lot for sale
(including after the fall of the hammer) if he believes there
may be error or dispute, and take such other action as he
reasonably thinks fit. (c) The auctioneer will commence
and advance the bidding at levels and in increments he
considers appropriate and is entitled to place a bid or series
of bids on behalf of the charities up to the Reserve on the
lot, without indicating he is doing so and whether or not
other bids are placed. (d) Subject to Condition 6(b), the
contract between the Buyer and the charities is concluded
on the striking of the auctioneer’s hammer, whereupon
the Buyer becomes liable to pay the Purchase Price. (e) Any
post-auction sale of lots offered at auction shall incorporate
these Conditions as if sold in the auction room.
7. Payment and Collection (a) Your obligation to pay the
purchase price arises when the lot is knocked down to you
on the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer in respect of the Lot.
(b) Unless agreed in writing with you by the charities, you
must pay all sums to the charities in the currency in which
the sale was conducted immediately upon winning the lot
and you must ensure that the funds are cleared by the 5th
working day after the sale. Payment must be made to the
charities by cheque, bankers draft, cash, credit card or debit
card unless otherwise agreed with you in writing by the
charities. There will be a 2% charge for payment by credit
or debit card. If you do not pay any sums due in accordance
with this clause, the seller will have the rights to withhold
the lot. (c) Title in a purchased lot will not pass until the
charities has received the Purchase Price for that lot in
cleared funds. The charities are not obliged to release a lot
to the Buyer until the title of the lot has passed. Any earlier

unconditional obligation to pay the Purchase Price. (d) The
purchaser is responsible for organising delivery of their

has been made with the charities prior to this date, could
result in the charities retaining the title of the lot and the
decision regarding this will be at the charity’s discretion.

sole responsibility for insurance) from collection or after 5
days of the purchase price being received by the charities
in cleared funds.
