Scottish Rugby has partnered with Scottish Gas to celebrate the growth of women’s rugby by casting three of the sport’s trailblazers into sustainable statues.


On the eve of the Guiness Women’s Six Nations, statues of Donna Kennedy, Lisa Thomson, and Francesca McGhie have been unveiled on Castle Street, Edinburgh.

All three statues have been created by ‘state-of-the-art 3D printing technology using 100% recycled plastics intercepted from industrial waste destined for marine environments or landfill.’

They will remain at Castle Street until the evening of Friday 22nd March.
