Teddy Zip Line Returns to Market Harborough Today
Written by HFM News on 19th September 2026
Teddy bears are taking the plunge down St Dionysius Church in Market Harborough today as the Teddy Zip Line returns for a fifth year.
The church will once again be transformed into the much-loved British Bearways Bearport, with teddies taking to the zip line from the tower.
The popular fundraiser is organised by the Market Harborough C of E Academy PTFA in partnership with St Dionysius Church.
Vicar Phil Bryson told HFM the event is supporting a host of good causes:

The event runs from 12 noon until 4pm
It takes around 60 volunteers to transform the church into a bustling Bearport, with people from St Dionysius Church and the PTFA joined by Scouts, Guides, Sea Cadets, local businesses and other members of the community.
The event runs from 12 noon until 4pm, with the final teddy flight departing at 3.45pm.
Organisers say the event is a great example of the local community coming together to support good causes.
