Senior Paramedic Catherine Maynard who works with the Cycle Response Unit was called to an elderly gentleman who had fallen in the street when she spotted the former Manchester United and England midfielder near Endsleigh Street.
Catherine said: "I was waiting with my patient for an ambulance to transfer him to hospital and although I was keeping him warm it was very cold outside."
"All of a sudden, I looked up and saw someone who looked like David Beckham walking past us. He said hello and got in his car. I said to the man I was treating, 'I think that was David Beckham'. Ten minutes later, he came back with a cup of coffee for me and a tea for the patient."
"We were both very amused, and flattered. It was awful cycling around in the cold today and I couldn't believe it when he came back with some hot drinks - I was so chuffed."
It's nice to be reminded of the love and kindness that's present in the world.
