Every 2 years Home-Start holds a national fundraising event called the Home-Start Big Tea Party. During the month of May, hundreds of Tea Parties take place in a variety of venues, large and small, all across the UK.
The Big Tea Party auction ran alongside this event, between the 16th and 26th May 2008. All items were generously donated, so 100% of the selling price went to Home-Start UK, and shared with some Schemes who helped with the prizes. Most were on the theme of tea or party, some with an interesting twist!
The following 2 proved to be our "star prizes" and raised the highest amounts.
- VIP family tour of all 7 floors of Hamleys toy store in London, including lunch, £200 vouchers & a personal shopper
-
Round of golf at St Andrews & overnight stay at the Fairmont Hotel for two people
All the other items attracted considerable interest too and we were thrilled to raise over £1,500 in our first ever eBay auction!
We'd like to say "Thank you very much" to everybody that took part. We hope you enjoyed it, we certainly did. If you won the item you were after, please enjoy your purchase; if you missed out, better luck next time!
If you didn't see anything that "rang your bell", or you missed out (therefore saving your money!) but would still like to support us with a donation, please go to:

Once again, THANK YOU ONE AND ALL, DONORS & BUYERS for supporting Home-Start's Big Tea Party auction, and we hope to see you again at the next one.
