The sales includes an exclusive range of prizes, including VIP football tickets at Ipswich Town and the chance to see Suffolk singer Ed Sheeran live in concert.

The auction has been organised by East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices (EACH) special events committee.

It is chaired by veteran fundraiser Gina Long, who said: “I’m so pleased EACH and The Sir Bobby Robson Foundation will both benefit from what I’m sure will be a super online auction this October.

“We have many fabulous items and experiences to suit all budgets and I would encourage everyone to keep an eye on the EACH auction page on thesaleroom.com.

“We are so grateful to everyone who has donated a prize to the auction and can still accept more.”
