The Homeless Fund: Last chance to bid for our charity auction lot

There are just hours left to bid on incredible lots and support our homeless appeal through our online auction.

Holidays on offer include four nights in wilderness luxury by the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe — complete with game drives and river zip-lines, a five-day luxury getaway in the Maldives and a staycation to remember at London’s Hotel Café Royal.

There are also unique experiences up for grabs. One bidder and their family will be able to have Selfridges’ toy shop to themselves and £500 of goods to take home, a foodie can opt for a feast cooked in the bidder’s home by award-winning chef Asma Khan and a Blue can take home a Chelsea FC shirt signed by the club’s first team.

In a personal gesture of support, actor Sir Ian McKellen has offered four lucky fans the chance to watch his acclaimed one-man career retrospective show currently running at the Harold Pinter Theatre in the West End.

One couple will be able to experience a true holiday of a lifetime with a five-night stay at Soneva Fushi in the Maldives (Soneva)

Ticket holders will also be invited backstage for a behind-the-scenes look at the production and a chat with the star himself.

All money raised will be donated to The Homeless Fund.

The auction closes tonight at 10pm. You can bid at ​​www.givergy.com/thehomelessfund.
