Paddington Bear raises money at Johnstone supermarket for charity

Shoppers at the Johnstone Morrisons got to see the pleasant face belonging to Paddington Bear as he raised money for homeless veterans.

The Homeless Veterans Project made a visit to the store to raise money for the charity which supports veterans and provides accommodation and offers support to those who have served in the Armed Forces

Donna Armstrong, vice chairman at Homeless Veterans Project, said: “The event went really well.

Him being a homeless bear is very appropriate for homeless veterans.
