SHOPPERS in Redditch may have bumped into a cuddly "fun"-draising bear while visiting Debenhams last Wednesday.

The store in the Kingfisher Centre provided one of the stops for Toby the Bear, who was collecting money for the Primrose Hospice before travelling to other destinations around the country.

The store also held a fun day on Saturday in aid of the hospice.

Primrose director of fund-raising Jane Wardman said: "It's a fun way of raising funds for local charities and we are very grateful to the staff at the Redditch store, who continue to raise funds for us."
