Online Charity Auction

In aid of Cancer Research UK

17 - 21 November 2025

Members of Broadstone Art Society have kindly donated paintings for our annual online charity auction. This year the Society reflects on how cancer has affected a number of members and friends and consequently a natural choice for fundraising is research into this terrible disease.

Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading independent cancer charity dedicated to saving lives through research, influence and information.

You can find out more information at www.cancerresearchuk.org
