The Prospects Trust, a registered charity and organic care farm, is eagerly preparing for its forthcoming fundraiser Harmony in Harlem 2011 being held on Thursday 3rd March at the Guildhall Cambridge as part of the Local Secrets Live event programme. The Jazz evening will be given an extra bit of excitement with a glittering range of auction lots to bid upon.
The Prospects Trust has just revealed the auction lots to whet the appetite of those who have already purchased their tickets and have their dancing shoes ready but for those who haven t, tickets are still on sale via Local Secrets. The auction will be expertly conducted by Martin Millard of Cheffins Fine Art.
Marianne Baker, Development Officer and Co-Manager of the Trust said the generosity of local businesses and people giving up their time and resources to create a wonderful auction list is amazing. We are hoping the auction will raise much needed funds for the charity which supports people with learning difficulties, disabilities and mental ill health gain meaning work experience and training on our 18 acre organic farm in Reach, Cambridgeshire.
