Peppa Pig and Bob the Builder are among the characters who will help pull a hospital bed from Eltham to Lewisham for charity.

A team from Lewisham Shopping Centre and Demelza hospice will take the bed on the three mile journey from the hospice to the shopping centre from noon on September 3.

People will be encouraged to donate to the charity via the Demelza Wishing Well at the centre outside JD Sports.

Demelza’s community fundraiser Jenny Heritage said: “Here at Demelza, we’re all about fun, laughter and making memories and that’s what we hope the bed pull event will do.

“We’re very excited and hope to see as many people as possible come down and join in.”
