Looking for different ways to raise funds for her chosen charity Just \u2018B\u2019\u00a0Sandra approached regular Flog It and Bargain Hunt \u00a0expert <a href=\"https:\/\/hawleys.info\">Caroline Hawley<\/a>. Would Caroline be interested to give a Zoom\u00a0 presentation about her life as an auctioneer and TV regular? We were very happy when she said yes. \u00a0So, on Friday 14 May Caroline delighted us with her presentation that was both humorous and demonstrated her passion and knowledge. She also valued objects submitted by our guests and took questions.\u00a0 A brilliant night with more than \u00a3500 raised for Just \u2018B\u2019. \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/justb.org.uk\">Just \u2018B\u2019<\/a> is part of North Yorkshire Hospice Care working closely with Saint Michaels and Heriot Home Care. It provides bereavement services locally and nationally,<\/p>\n<h3>So what did we learn?<\/h3>\n<p>Caroline started her interest in objects and antiques at \u00a0young age. Her passion exudes into her presentation titled, &#8216;The Auction Market Today and Tales from Television&#8221;. Brown antique furniture, once so sort after, has plummeted in value. But don&#8217;t chuck\u00a0your Ercol on the skip. That has shot up in value. Designer handbags go for a fair old price, as do watches. \u00a0And, if two people really want something the price can sky rocket. A pair of <a href=\"https:\/\/hawleys.info\/news\/chinese-dragon-plates-set-house-record-for-hawleys\/\">Chinese \u00a0Dragon Dishes<\/a> sold for \u00a3146K. Setting the House Record. \u00a0Caroline found a real bargain and bought a beautiful Dior dress for \u00a34 but it kept her up all night &#8211; \u00a0Once on she couldn&#8217;t get out of it by herself!<\/p>\n<h3>Valuations<\/h3>\n<p>Guests emailed objects they wanted \u00a0to know more about. This included a Victoria Pharmacy chest of draws, Autographs of the original members of the Rolling Stones from 1964, \u00a0Plates, Clocks, Furniture, jewellery and a book of monologues from the 1930s performed by Stanley Holloway including the Lion and Albert.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4889\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4889\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/harrogate\/files\/2021\/05\/StanleyHolloway.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4889\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/harrogate\/files\/2021\/05\/StanleyHolloway-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Monologues performed by Stanley Holloway\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/harrogate\/files\/2021\/05\/StanleyHolloway-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/harrogate\/files\/2021\/05\/StanleyHolloway.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4889\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Book of Monologues performed by Stanley Holloway<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Flog It and Bargain Hunt<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s obvious that Caroline loves working on Flog It and Bargain Hunt. She spoke very positively about the teams \u00a0and how much fun she has in the making of the programmes &#8211; especially about being able to rummage in people bags to see what they have brought. In one instance, on Flog It, she enthused so much about an embroidery sampler that the person who brought it decided not to sell it after all.<\/p>\n<p>So a big thank you to Caroline Hawley for providing us with an Excellent Evening&#8217;s Entertainment and for helping us raise so much money for Just &#8216;B&#8217;.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single-block__title aos-init aos-animate\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\">\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-block__description aos-init aos-animate\" data-aos=\"fade-up\" data-aos-duration=\"1000\" data-aos-delay=\"150\">\n<p>Just \u2018B\u2019 offers emotional wellbeing and bereavement support to children, young people and adults across North Yorkshire, as well as supporting NHS, care sector and emergency service workers nationally through a dedicated helpline in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Just \u2018B\u2019 is one of a range of services offered by North Yorkshire Hospice Care, the registered charity helping local people to live with terminal illness and bereavement. \u00a0You can help support Just &#8216;B&#8217;
