Going, Going, Saved!

We are excited for the return of the National Churches Trust auction in 2025. 

Enjoy the thrill of bidding to win once-in-a-lifetime experiences or beautiful art for your home, while supporting our work to keep churches open and in use.  

This year we have another brilliant range of lots for you to bid on, including a tour of St Alban’s Cathedral, an original sketch by Luke Edward Hall, and a stay in a French holiday villa.  

 

How does it work?

From 13 to 28 June, the auction website will be live for you to place your bids. You’ll be notified when somebody outbids you on one of the lots and whoever has placed the highest bid at 5pm on Friday 27 June will win. 

All of the proceeds go towards our work keeping churches open and in use.
