Hundreds of knitters have been crafting trauma teddies in the colours of the Ukrainian flag to welcome children arriving in Scotland after fleeing Russian bombs.
The bears have been stitched by people from all over Scotland after retired primary school teacher and grandmother, Eilidh Dow, decided to start knitting bears for children from Ukraine.
Eilidh, from Dollar in Clackmannanshire, had spent the preceding winter making "trauma teddies" to send to youngsters experiencing distressing events around the world.
