ICONIC pottery and a England Rugby top signed by the Youngs brothers, Ben and Tom, are among collectables up for auction to raise funds for the East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice.
The charity, which cares for children and young people with life-threatening illnesses, is a lifeline for families across north Essex.
To maintain its £6million a year services, EACH has launched their third annual spring online auction which is live until Sunday, May 8, at 8pm.
A pair of sparkling Strictly Come Dancing shoes autographed by dancer Karen Clifton will go under the hammer, alongside a cricket bat signed by the England Cricket World Cup 2015 team and VIP tickets to see Guys and Dolls at the Phoenix Theatre in London.
Pottery collectors can bid for an exclusive Emma Bridgewater teapot, designed as part of a collaboration with the charity for their 2014 nook appeal campaign.
Debbie-Lee Pinching, EACH special relationships and events manager, said: “We have many fabulous items up for grabs and experiences to suit all budgets so I would encourage everyone to keep an eye on the EACH auction page where we’ll be adding prizes as they come in.
“We’re so grateful to everyone who has donated a prize to the auction and can still accept more.”
To donate a prize, call Debbie-Lee on 01223 205192 or email debbielee.pinching@each.org.uk.
