This will take place at the school on Lanark Road, Maida Vale, W9, on Saturday 21st May. Doors open at 6pm and the auction will commence at 7.30pm.
The evening aims to bring together the local community to help raise valuable funds for the school, which will be spent on new computers for the IT suite and maintaining the school’s two teacher system. The auction has been running for more than 15 years, and raised more than £60,000 in 2010. Some of the standout 'Promises' going under the hammer so far include week long holidays in Croatia, Portugal, Venice, Cannes’ or La Tenuta in Tuscany alongside a guided personal tour of Coronation Street, and a framed and signed England football shirt. Peter Rollings, CEO of Marsh & Parsons, commented: "We are always pleased to help support the local area, and St Joseph’s is certainly a cornerstone of the community in Maida Vale. The auction sounds like a fantastic idea to raise much needed funds and foster community spirit, and we jumped at the chance to offer our financial support to the event."For further information please contact:
