The character has been created by volunteers as part of a project run by Reprezent Project, a Yarmouth-based community interest company that organises artistic and cultural activities to promote social integration.

The Little George project was curated by Reprezent’s founder Ruben Cruz and the costume was designed by professional puppet maker and performer Jodie Smith, of Animus Puppetry, who worked with a team of seven volunteers to make the mascot.
