Do you have a special talent or knowledge of a craft? Are you fortunate enough to own a vintage car, impressive motorbike or even a boat? Or do you know someone who does?

If so, would you or they be willing to give up anything, from a few hours a day, in aid of Tools for Self Reliance?
We are seeking items for our auction of promises to help celebrate our 30th birthday this year.

We need exciting, novel and interesting things for people to bid for to help raise money for us. These could include a day of sailing on the Solent, a ride through the New Forest in a vintage car, half a day of painting tuition, a hot air balloon ride, or even a promise of a few hours ironing!

Any ideas or offers very welcome. Please email Nicky.
