The first auction at St John's was held twenty years ago to raise funds towards the building costs of converting the church building and halls. Over the years it has raised significant sums that have supported the upkeep and development of St John's.This year's auction will be held on Saturday 1st March with viewing from 10.00 - 11.45am and the sale beginning at 12 noon. Items for sale must be notified to the auction organiser, Janet Keenan (020 8590 5191), before 16th February.
Over the years that the auction has been running, Janet has met lots of generous people, visited their homes, heard wonderful stories of their lives and what St John's means to them. She has also had a stalwart band of helpers without whom running the auction would not have been such fun or so effective.
However, due to dwindling stock, this years auction will probably be the last of its kind at St John's. So make sure you come along to snap up those bargains while they remain!
