🧸 Donate a teddy, make a difference 🧸

Plymouth Libraries are proud to be donation points for the Teddy Bear Appeal from Foster for Plymouth

The appeal provides new teddy bears to children in foster care, helping to bring comfort, reassurance and a friendly face during a difficult time.

📢 How you can donate:
✅ Donate a new teddy bear or soft toy (new items only)
✅Please package your bear and clearly mark it: Foster for Plymouth (Teddy Bear Appeal)
✅Include a piece of paper with your name, email address and the name of the teddy
✅ Drop it off at any Plymouth library

The appeal finishes at the end of November so that Foster Plymouth can start the process of teddy "adoption" with the children and young people.

Find out more about the appeal and how your donation helps👉https://fosterforplymouth.co.uk/campaigns/teddy-bear-appeal

Every teddy bear donated will make a real difference to a child in Plymouth.❤️
