As we are now a registered charity it our intention is to raise funds to help support our innitaitive for Junior Bridge and also provide a Bursary fund to allow us to teach people who might not be able to afford to learn. We have been fortunate in persuading some star players to be auctioned to help us in our charitable aims and we are grateful to Cafe Ivy for their donation of a fantastic voucher for afternoon tea. I would  ask you all to bid generously and allow us raise as much money as possible. The stars to be auctioned are Mike Bell (A member of Andrew Robson's star studded team winning almost everything), Stefan Skorchev (Our wonderful Bulgarian International who is taking us all in Varna). A real coup with the rare appearance of the wonderful Paul Mendelson (star author and wonderful bridge player). James Thrower (who has won various national events, most notable is the National Pairs in 2015). Finally we are grateful for Cafe Ivy for donating a voucher for a champagne afternoon tea for two at their fantastic restaurant in Richmond
