CHILDREN at a Blackburn hospital have been showered with teddy bears after a company made a special donation.

The children's medical unit at Queen's Park Hospital took delivery of 30 teddy bears for use on the ward.

Portakabin, who have opened a new office in Blackburn, donated the toys, which were presented by manager Darren Tomlins.

Play specialist Elizabeth Halsall is pictured presenting Katie Holliday, four, from Oswaldtwistle, with one of the teddies.
