Soroptimist International Poole’s Silent Auction held at the Hamworthy Club on 24 February attracted more than 60 guests. A bargain hunter’s paradise, the bidding was fierce on the wide range of items on auction. These included jewellery, bags, shoes, perfumes, glassware, books and more.
The auction, along with the raffle, name the dog competition and ticket sales, raised over £700 for charities and causes supported by Poole Soroptimists. These range from Project SIerra funded by Soroptimists around the globe to local causes such as the Christmas Parcels Fund, ChestHelp and the Dolphin Boat.
