Smiles were put on the faces of children in hospital today following a generous festive season donation from Brigg.
Youngsters on the Disney Ward at Scunthorpe General Hospital over Christmas are getting to know a giant teddy bear called Duncan.
He was won by Brigg shopper Jayne Fisher in a Tesco Extra Christmas name this bear competition.
Through social media, local people were then asked to nominate worthy causes they thought would benefit from having Duncan donated, with different suggestions forthcoming.
A special trip was made from Brigg to the Disney Ward to deliver the bear to his new home in time for Christmas.
The big teddy filled the entire space behind the front two seats in a hatchback.
