A meet-and-greet with Pudsey Bear at the BBC offices is up for grabs in a charity auction.
The experience is one of more than 50 prizes available in an online auction organised by long-time fundraiser Amy Wright from Romsey, in support of BBC Children in Need.
She has been fundraising for the charity for 36 years, starting when she was a child in need herself as she wanted to help other children.

Amy, who was born with cerebral palsy and learning difficulties, said: "I met Pudsey in person with my parents, and it was a dream come true.
"I’m so excited about my BBC Children in Need auction and giving a family the chance to meet Pudsey too."
The auction closes at 9pm on Friday, November 13, and includes a meeting with Pudsey Bear at the BBC’s Salford offices, a police dog training experience, a private yacht outing and a bottle of whisky signed by the Speaker of the House of Commons.
Amy, who has difficulty walking, has raised £13,000 over the past five years and hopes the auction will help her match that total this year.
Her mother Helen said: "Amy’s story is one of courage, determination, generosity and an extraordinary belief in the power of making a difference and I’m so proud of her."
Amy will also be collecting donations in person on Friday, November 13 at Sir Harold Hillier Gardens from 11am to 3pm.
