Three teenage boys have been praised after searching for a duvet for a homeless man before tucking him in to sleep.

The exploits of Szymon, Wojtek and Marcin were captured on CCTV whuch shows them walking with the bedclothes through their hometown of Nysa, in south Poland. 

After their act of kindness was revealed, Nysa’s Mayor personally thanked the boys for their example.

The boys told local broadcaster TVN24 they stumbled upon the man during one night and asked how they could help him. 

The unnamed man said he needed a blanket to stay warm, and the boys left to find one. 

In town, they found a person throwing out an old duvet, and they took it back to the man.

 "We took the quilt for this gentleman,” Szymon told the news outlet. “We hugged him and he thanked us.”

He added: "He smiled and went to sleep. I am convinced that it was worth doing. If someone asks for help, we should give him a hand."

The Mayor of Nysa, Kordian Kolbiarz, congratulated the boys, saying: "That's a big gesture. I bow to you.

"The world needs such gestures."

The man is reportedly no longer homeless.
