The Pride Shines catches the light and shines brightly in the Yorkshire sunshine.
With a subtle, polished sheen, she radiates strength and warmth, symbolising the heart and heritage of Yorkshire, held in every person who sees their image within her.
The image on this sculpture will always be changing, but its heart remains the same.
Take a picture with the strongest people you know, and share it with us at @PrideofYorkshireTrail.
