The statue is funded by public donations and sponsors, supported by the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust and a special advisory group set up by the government. The statue is 9 feet (about 2.7 meters) high and is made of bronze. Based on a 1931 photograph of Gandhi standing outside the office of Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald. The base of the statue is lower than that of other statues in Parliament Square, a deliberate choice by the Gandhi Statue Memorial Trust to embody Gandhi's spirit of humility and equality. The statue, designed by Ian Walters, was unveiled in 2014 to mark the 150 anniversary of Gandhi's birth.
