We’d like to give a big thank you to the staff at Specsavers in Headingley, in particular Shell Wilks, for organising a Teddy Bears Party to raise funds for Sunshine & Smiles!
There was a bake sale, a "How many sweets in the jar?" competition, and a "Name the Teddy" contest.
So far, they have raised £131.43, and there’s still time to donate - you can do so here:
