Wishesjust4you, which was founded by Rutland man Bill Stillman in early 2024, is continuing fundraising efforts for children with life-limiting illnesses with a celebrity postcard auction

The charity's Celebrity Postcard Art Auction hopes to raise £100,000 to supply art materials to children in NHS hospitals, as well as continuing to carry out the 'wishes' of children with life-limiting illnesses to create valuable lasting memories for them and their loved ones. 

The online auction has 225 pieces of art from 127 artists, celebrities, local creatives and individuals from across the country. 

With bidding starting from just £20, each artwork measures 150mm x 210mm (unless otherwise stated) and includes a great variety of art styles and mediums. 

Speaking about the auction, founder Bill Stillman said: 'Every bid helps us create magical moments for children with life-limiting illnesses. We are incredibly grateful to the artist who have donated their talent and time, and we invite you to join us in making a real difference.' 

The auction launched on Monday 6th October at 10am and will close on Sunday 19th October at 10pm. Click here to view the pieces available in the auction.
