Callum Mackay, Macmillan Fundraising Manager for North West London, said that the charity relied heavily on voluntary donations, so partnerships such as that with High Road Auctions, were brilliant.

Viewing for the auction will be held from Saturday 19th – Tuesday 22nd 10am-6pm and Macmillan literature such a leaflets and noticeboards will be available around the showroom.

Although the auction will be held as normal at 6pm, it will be opened with a short talk by Callum Mackay, outlining the work done by the charity. The auction will include items offered in aid of the charity, as well as the usual mix of silver, ceramics, furniture and jewellery.

A competition will be held over the four viewing days encouraging visitors to guess the hammer price of a particular item sold on behalf of Macmillan. The Café Bar will also provide special treats and discounts.
