A SPECIAL auction to raise funds for charities supporting people fleeing the conflict in Ukraine will be held this week by Caledonian Marts, Stirling.
Restaurant vouchers, holidays, farming equipment, livestock sporting memorabilia and experience tickets will be auctioned live, and simultaneously online at caledonian.auctionmarts.com, when the sale gets underway at 11:00 this coming Saturday, 23rd April.
“We are delighted with the lots generously donated for this sale,” John Kyle, MD of Caledonian Marts commented, “I would love to see some competitive bidding on Saturday so that we can raise money for the Ukrainian people affected by the horrors of the Russian invasion.”
“Our regular mart customers, friends and contacts have answered our call for donations and I am so grateful to them for their support.”
“We have sporting memorabilia ranging from a signed Frank Lampard top to a commemorative tennis top signed by Andy Murray. There are butchers vouchers, restaurant vouchers, Murrayfield international tickets, golf days – you name it!”
“For the farmers, there is everything from engine oil to a plough, cows with calves, ewes with lambs, and even llamas.”

“Members of the public and farmers alike – even those who have never been to an auction before – are all very welcome to attend the auction in person at our mart, just off Millhall Road in Stirling.”
