The organisers are delighted to announce some of the items that will be up for auction at The Who Convention 2010. These have all been generously donated by companies, individuals and sponsors, to whom we are truly grateful. Proceeds from this auction and the Convention will be donated to our two chosen charities, the Teenage Cancer Trust and the Meg Fox Kids Educational Trust.
We are hoping to have a number of these items signed by Pete and Roger and will be making the necessary requests. In the meantime, please stay tuned for further additions to the auction and details on the current items.
