Yahoo News Ed Sheeran donates Lego model of himself to charity shop
Ed Sheeran has donated a life-sized Lego model of his own head to a local charity shop.
The singer-songwriter is known for doing the occasional "clear out" and making generous donations to the St Elizabeth Hospice in his hometown of Framlingham, Suffolk.
He also contributed a record player, headphones, books, headphones, and "Heinz ketchup memorabilia".
Hospice spokeswoman Helen Owen told the BBC: "He's been really generous - every now and again he has a clearout.
"As Framlingham is his local shop, he thinks of us. Normally it's a few jumpers and Hoax T-shirts he wears on tour, which are great, but this time we got the head."
What does international superstar @edsheeran get up to on tour? Well he makes a self portrait out of Lego of course. The Castle on the Hill singer has since donated this to St Elizabeth Hospice and we're so very grateful. What do you think we should do with it? https://t.co/iYbX5UTjUM

She added that it was "really lovely" the Lego model was "of him, [and] made by him".
Sheeran is currently on a huge stadium tour in support of his album Divide, and is set to perform four nights at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff from 21 - 24 June, before heading out to shows in Europe and the US.
He was recently named Songwriter of the Year at the 2018 Ivor Novello awards, while his friend and collaborator Stormzy took home Best Album for Gang Signs & Prayer.
