The toys will be donated to a children's charity that was close to the late monarch's heart.
"Over the last few weeks, we have been looking for a fitting and appropriate use for the hundreds of teddy bears that were left in The Green Park and Hyde Park to honour The Queen," Tom Jarvis, Director of Parks at The Royal Parks charity, said in a statement.
"We are delighted that the teddy bears will now bring joy and comfort to hundreds of children supported by Barnardo’s," he added. Per the palace, the bears are currently being "well looked after" at Buckingham Palace, Clarence House, and in the Royal Parks nursery situated in Hyde Park. They will be professionally cleaned and delivered to Barnado's children's services in the coming weeks.
"Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was Barnardo’s Patron for over 30 years, and we are honoured to be able to gives homes to the teddies that people left in her memory," said Barnardo’s Chief Executive, Lynn Perry MBE. "We promise to look after these bears who will be well-loved and bring joy to the children we support."
Perry continued, "We are incredibly grateful to Her Majesty The Queen Consort for her support in helping us to raise awareness of the needs of vulnerable children and young people in the UK so that we can continue to support them through our vital services."Quinci LeGardye is an LA-based freelance writer who covers culture, politics, and mental health through a Black feminist lens.
