britt proudly produced this lemon teddy especially to support bear cottage, the only children's hospice in NSW.
the 'britt bear cottage fundraising teddies' were launched at 'the bear affair' gala in manly, their major fundraising event of the year and all proceeds went to bear cottage. here you can see the real-life teddy having a lot of fun at the gala! can you guess who is inside the teddy suit? yes, it is britt herself!
the manly daily, our local newspaper, published a double page feature about britt on 11 march 2008 by journalist sue hoban. here is an excerpt:
"now, in an example of great synergy, the designer best known for her teddy bear designs has embarked on what she expects to be one of her most rewarding partnerships, teaming up with bear cottage to produce a special charity bear."
you can also now purchase this special teddy from us and $5 from each teddy goes to raise funds for this amazing organisation.
