SPACE BALL 2023
Read more ...SPACE - Solent Professionals Annual Charity Event - is a unique opportunity
for the Solent Professionals to come together to network and raise money for a
chosen charity. A different charity is
selected for each ball and the 2023 chosen charity is in aid of Andy Syvret and
his family; Andy has been diagnosed with
Motor Neurone Disease and his daughter Jemima has Cerebral Palsy.
Andy is one
of life's loveliest people. This tough diagnosis is one of several knocks he
and his delightful family have suffered over the last few years. We'd love you
to help us fundraise to help both Andy & his family; and to progress
research towards a cure for MND.
Together
with Andy we've decided to split our fundraising with an overall target of
£100,000:
1. Andy and
Jemima's Journey - Andy's daughter Jemima has quadriplegic cerebral palsy. She
is a wheelchair user and requires ongoing physiotherapy. We'd like to raise
£50,000 towards the cost of a new van capable of carrying both Jemima's
wheelchair and in anticipation of Andy's needs; and for Jemima's treatment.
2. My Name'5
Doddie Foundation - we'd also like to raise £50,000 towards MND support and
research via the charity founded by the inspirational Scottish rugby
international, Doddie Weir.

1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
