Roll up to the grand charity auction at 1630 today for a chance to ‘bag’ one of the fantastic lots on offer.

In aid of the 1851 Trust and hosted by Lendy at the Lendy Lounge along The Parade, leading auctioneer, Nick Bonham, will work his magic to raise as much as he can for this worthy cause.

According to Ben Cartledge, CEO of the 1851 Trust, the auction will be fairly relaxed: “We are aiming to keep it casual so you don’t have to sign up, just need to bid.

“There are just five lots including an opportunity to sail with INEOS Rebels at the Extreme Sailing Series in Cardiff on foiling GC32.”

Other lots worth bidding for include a TNG Classic Cup Automatic Watch, a Goodwood Revival experience in September with full behind the scenes access together with a professional driving you round in a car, a Camp Bestival VIP experience for 2019 and, a bottle of Westerhall Estate Vintage Rum No.5 Rum.
