Success at an event like ours relies heavily on the efforts of the team at work ‘behind the scenes’ before and during the event.

We have been blown away by the generosity of individuals and local business with donations for the raffle and auction and are now focusing on the smooth running of these activities on the night.

I am looking for UP TO EIGHT VOLUNTEERS to help on the night for a short time during the evening to help guarantee the success for our charity. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

If you are willing to be one of the eight - drop an “I WILL” in comments or message me direct

With only two weeks to go to our FESTIVE FUND-RAISER EVENING we’ve just finished compiling the list of auction items - we have an amazing selection of items that have been generously donated by local businesses that will be up for auction on the night.

If you are unable to attend the evening (or just want to get in on the action early!) you can place an early SILENT BID for your preferred item. If yours is the highest amongst the advanced bids, this will become the reserve bid on that item and, if there are no larger bids on the night, you will secure that item!

TO PLACE A SILENT BID in advance on any item below, email [email protected]
