The artist, who wishes to remain anonymous, said: “We started making the toppers to make people smile.

“It seems to be working. We then added a donation flyer as people would stop and ask us if they could give us money to make them.

“I have been volunteering at BYHP for a few years now. The market asked us to make a Jubilee topper for Sheep Street a few months ago, which we did, and they gave a large donation to BYHP.”
