Hi Geoff

Great speaking to you earlier. Hope you got out of Truro OK before all the city of light traffic started.

The reason for my call was that we have a donated household good charity auction on Wednesday night and have been badly let down by the Newquay Papers who both left the event out of this week’s publications!

We are organising a household auction at the Quint Inn in Quintrell Downs Nr Newquay on Wed 23rd Nov. Viewing is from 4pm, with the auction starting at 6.30.

I was wondering if you would able to help us promote this event via your network of events and contacts, perhaps by letting us put posters etc up at your sales this weekend, and giving out flyers to stall holders/customers, and maybe putting it on your website.

The goods up for auction have all been donated via our shops network and house clearance service, but are unsuitable for sale in to the shops (usually due to space restrictions). The lots will be made up of collectables, gifts and household items. There will also be numerous boxes of contents up for auction, perfect for Car Booters! .

The auction is being run by a local auctioneer who is doing the entire event commission free so 100% of the money raised will go to Cornwall Hospice Care. The last auction we did last month raised almost £500, but we want to double it for this one!

Also I think it would be great to meet up when you have time to do so as I think there could be lots of ways in the future we could work together.

Let me know your thoughts and thanks once again for your time.

Best Wishes
