Welcome to the Great Ellingham Teddy Bear Festival site.
Since 2004, a committed group of volunteers has raised in excess of £68,500 for local charities, organisation and groups, but the main focus has always been about bringing the community together for a fortnight of events centering around our Teddy Bear Trail.
