Crowds asked to stop leaving Paddington Bears and marmalade sandwich as tributes for The Queen

People have been asked not to leave Paddington Bear toys and wrapped sandwiches as tributes to The Queen, who died last week. Touching tributes have been left to the late monarch at Green Park in London.

But with The Royal Park staff struggling to cope with all the tributes, people have been advised to only place unwrapped flowers and sandwiches, the Mirror reports. Well-wishers have also been asked not to leave balloons or lit candles due to the risk to wildlife.

On its website, the charity said: "In the interests of sustainability, we ask visitors to only lay organic or compostable material." Photos already show sandwiches people have left to mark the Queen's death turning black with mould.
