Meet this year’s guest of honour, a giant snow tiger. 

Tiger square

It may surprise you to know that the one item that has raised the most money for the charities we support has traditionally been the giant soft toy.

It says a lot about the spirit of the evening when our guests give for the sake of it and often send the toy back to be re-auctioned for an even higher amount.

Some giant cuddlies have made perfect presents for small children and others now live in the charity homes that we support.

Get ready to bid for our snow tiger in the live auction on Saturday night. #LIVE15
