Milton Keynes jewellers F. Hinds are once again throwing their support behind BBC Children in Need with sales of merchandise in all stores ahead of the annual televised fundraising event on Friday.
The chain has been a huge supporter of BBC Children in Need for many years, with their themed range of Pudsey gifts selling alongside the ever-popular merchandise including Baby Pudsey Bears, Bear Ears and Pin Badges.
The family run jewellers are continuing to play their part in the fundraising efforts with all monies received from the merchandise going directly to BBC Children in Need, to be distributed amongst their plethora of charities.
So far, more than £7,000 of the brand’s £10,000 target has been raised thanks to the generosity of loyal customers, with staff at the stores and Head Office also completing their own fundraising efforts in support of the cause.
“It is fantastic to have the Pudsey merchandise in stores – we are so proud of our yearly contribution to BBC Children In Need and know it is a cause which means a lot to our customers,” said Natasha House, head of marketing, “We are so excited that we have already raised over £7,000 this year for this amazing cause thanks to their generosity.
“We have high hopes to smash through our target, so we can contribute to the invaluable support BBC Children In Need gives to charities across the country,” she added.
“We look forward to welcoming customers into our stores to collect their Bear Ears ready to wear! It’s a pleasure to be able to support such a worthy cause.”
