Galway Bay fm newsroom - The Teddy Bear Hospital wrapped up today at the University of Galway after a busy two days.
Children from schools across Galway, from the city to Tuam, Mountbellew and beyond, brought their teddies to the hospital.

The aim of the event is to familiarise children with a hospital environment to reduce their fear of it.
