…not quite the start to 2026 I had hoped for. Visiting Mum at Royal Derby Hospital after a nasty fall … grateful she’s being well looked after. ❤️ Standing here tonight, beside this wall, brought back memories of a very different moment: auctioning from my shed during the first lockdown in 2020 to help raise funds for PPE for the NHS. A small thing at the time, but one I’ll always be proud of. Moments like this reset the compass. #nhs #royalderby #fundraiser

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of stepping up as Charity Auctioneer for the LFC Foundation Gala Ball in #Liverpool – and what a night it was! ⚽✨ The atmosphere was electric, the generosity overwhelming, and it was an honour to help raise vital funds for such an incredible cause. Evenings like this remind me why I love doing what I do. If you’re planning a charity gala, fundraiser or event and are looking for someone to bring energy, passion and a touch of theatre to the room….. I’d be delighted to help. 📧 [email protected] 🌐 #fyp #charityauctioneer #charityauction #fundraising

Lost in London… and now home where it belongs…. …on Shrove Tuesday 2026, the 1973 Ashbourne Royal Shrovetide ball went under my hammer… and I’m delighted to say it made £6,000, secured by a local Down’ard in the room. …from being kicked around in a north London garden to returning to Derbyshire on the very day the game is played… you honestly couldn’t script it better. Some lots are special. This one was history coming home. #Shrovetide #Ashbourne

..a quick working lunch in the pub while I book my train tickets down to Kent… tomorrow’s shaping up to be a busy (and rather exciting) Friday. … I’ll be auctioning the remarkable handwritten letter by a young Queen Elizabeth II .. a truly special piece to bring under the hammer. Plenty to prepare, but that’s all part of the fun. Onwards to Kent! 🚆✨ - CH x #QueenElizabethII #AuctioneerLife #BehindTheGavel #RoyalMemorabilia #QueenElizabethII

quite a moment today 🎩 Lot 1 today was an original Harry Corbett Sooty hand puppet … went straight to the top estimate, hammering down at £3,000. .. naturally i couldn’t resist giving Sooty a quick outing on the rostrum… and it’s safe to say he’s lost none of that cheeky charm. A wonderful result for a true TV icon. Got something special tucked away at home? You never know where it might lead… 👀 #Sooty #HarryCorbett #Collectables #AntiquesTok #AuctionMoment #HansonsAuctioneers

Here I am in #Tamworth with another Track the Treasure 🏴☠️ This time at the wonderful Age UK charity shop! Age UK is a charity dedicated to supporting older people through advice, services, and companionship - the work they do is incredible. I’m trying to find a treasure in their shop, which I can sell at auction & give all the proceeds back to the charity. I’ve found the treasure… can you? 🤔

🏴☠️ Track the Treasure is back and this week I’m in my hometown of Derby! I’ve popped into the Lighthouse Charity Shop, one of Valley CIDS’s charity shops that help fund youth and community projects across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire . It’s packed with preloved treasures and well worth a visit. Who can spot the item this time… Good luck and enjoy.
