We recently donated an auction lot for the Together for Short Lives Charity Ball. The charity does amazing work for children’s palliative care and we were very keen to support those children and their families by helping to raise vital funds for children living with life limiting conditions in the UK.

We have been informed that the ball raised an astonishing £400,000 – our lot was extremely popular and sold for £600 which we have been told will help 240 families connect with their local children’s hospice. We look forward to welcoming the amazing couple who bid so generously and will ensure they have a memorable holiday here in Northumberland.

** Simon Cowell was also at the ball offering his support. A one off signed photo of himself in racing gear raised £10,000
