At the recent Christmas Fair at Quinta Shopping, two friends of ACCA treasurer Jenny Harrison arrived with an outsized teddy in tow, having heard that two of the little girls at Bom Samaritano, the home in Alvor, had requested a teddy on their Christmas wish list.
Jenny took the decision, based on the sheer size of Mr Bear, to buy the girls their own small-sized versions, and to donate the big guy to the home for everyone to enjoy.
Jenny arrived at Bom Sam and invited the kids to see who was sleeping in the back of her car. That alone caused much excitement and huge smiles, but when Jenny explained he was looking for a new home, the children were overwhelmed and hauled teddy in, to kiss, cuddle and climb over!
