Founder's Day Dinner Auction in Support of CH Giving Day

Bid on a selection of lots on dinner night. This year's auction will help kickstart CH Giving Day (24–25 November) and build momentum ahead of the challenge.

All proceeds from the auction will contribute towards the Giving Day total, helping to support life-changing opportunities for current and future pupils. Every bid placed on the evening will help maximise the impact we can make.

CH Giving Day brings together Old Blues, students, staff, parents and friends for 36 hours of community, participation and impact.

The auction is just the beginning of the Giving Day journey, with the wider CH community coming together on 24–25 November to make a difference.

Anti-sniping rules apply to last-minute bids.

Got a lot to give? We’d love to take it off your hands.

An experience, a treasure, or a talent could be the lot everyone bids for — and help CH pupils along the way.
