Our Online Auction Raises an Incredible £777 for Local Families

Our 2026 Online Auction has officially wrapped, and what an amazing journey it has been. Over the past few weeks, our community has come together with generosity, excitement, and a shared commitment to supporting families across Epsom, Ewell, Banstead and Mole Valley North.

Thanks to every single person who bid, shared, donated a prize, or cheered us on, we are thrilled to announce that the auction raised an incredible £777. This total will help us support around four families for several weeks, providing emotional and practical help during some of their toughest moments.

A Community Effort from Start to Finish

The auction launched with a fantastic range of prizes, from family days out and fitness packages to a signed Chelsea FC Men’s First Team shirt. As the days went on, more prizes were added, more people got involved, and the excitement grew.

  • In the first week, we celebrated over £1,762 worth of prizes and 45 early bids.
  • As momentum built, new prizes were added from brilliant local partners, and the community rallied behind us.
  • In the final 24 hours, bids surged past 90, and we reached £670, with supporters jumping back in to secure their favourite items.
  • By the time the auction closed at 5pm on 30th April, we reached our final total of £777.

Every bid truly counted.
