Bakers raise cash for Children in Need

Posted by David Baker on Nov 12, 09 02:38 PM in Charity/voluntary

PUDSEY the bear took a tour around Harrow town centre today to help a well-known bakers raise money for Children in Need.
Staff at Greggs, in St Ann's Road, Harrow, took turns to dress up in the bear suit to meet and greet children in the area this morning.
Lisa Burden, manager at the bakers, said: "We all had a go in the suit walking around Harrow, going into shops to collect money and having lots of photos with children.
"Last year was the first year Greggs really started raising money for Children in Need.
"Last year we dressed up and next Friday (20) we are going to dress up in our pyjamas and paint our faces yellow.
"Last year we raised just over £1,000 so we're hoping to raise the same again this year."

We'd like to hear from you.
