Proceeds will go towards the NSPCC services such as the ‘Speak out. Stay safe’ programme in Sussex, which delivers safeguarding messages directly to children through assemblies and workshops.
The NSPCC hopes to visit every primary school in the UK, so every child is able to understand how to keep themselves safe and who they can turn to when they need help.
Kate Hershkowitz, community fundraising manager for Sussex, said: “We are very grateful to the NSPCC’s Arundel District for putting on this brilliant event which offers the opportunity to have ‘treasures from your home’ valued, whilst raising funds for the NSPCC, and to noted expert and auctioneer Rupert Toovey for his kind support in making this possible.
