Cuddly comfort for L&D patients

Furry little friends are ready to give kids at Luton and Dunstable Hospital accident and emergency department some teddy loving care.

Youngsters waiting to be seen can be cheered up by a special hug with the teddy bears waiting at the hospital.

A little bit of TLC for injured or sick children has been provided by the Teddies for Loving Care scheme run by Bedfordshire Freemasons.

The idea was dreamed up to make emergency visits a little less traumatic and relax children, which helps with their medical treatment.

Bedfordshire provincial grandmaster Martin Foss is a former L&D consultant and said he was delighted by the enthusiastic response to the teddies from patients and staff.
