SUE RYDER OPENS ITS FIRST EVER POP UP, PACKED WITH CELEBRITY DONATIONS

Charity crawlers, and celeb enthusiasts, look no further. For just one day only on Friday October 19th, Sue Ryder will be opening its pop up shop in Mayfair, with donations from famous faces including Eddie Redmayne, Kate Moss, Sam Smith and Daniel Radcliffe.

The temporary treasure chest will be hosted in one of London’s grandest auction houses, Bonhams, to help drive funds for one of the leading UK’s charities offering families palliative, neurological and bereavement care.

Top celebrity items will be sold via silent auction but customers can pop in and purchase a plethora of vintage goodies.

Oscar winning Actor Eddie Redmayne has donated a signed copy of his original script from The Theory of Everything, the biopic of Professor Stephen Hawking, who lived with MND for most of his adult life.

Eddie, who was awarded the Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Professor Hawking said of the donation:

“It seemed a fitting tribute to the memory of Stephen, to donate my signed script from The Theory of Everything to Sue Ryder. The charity provides vital support to people living with MND and I’m delighted that funds raised from my donation will help to support people living with this and other life-changing conditions.”

Model and fashion icon Kate Moss, who has donated a signed copy of her coffee-table tome Kate by Kate Moss to the shop added:

“I regularly donate to my local Sue Ryder shop in North London and I’m delighted to be supporting the charity’s first pop-up shop.”

 

The store will be open from 10:00 am – 4:30 pm on Friday 19th October at Bonhams 101 New Bond Street, London W1S 1SR.
