As part of our celebrations for Packwood’s 125th Anniversary, I am delighted to introduce this catalogue for our Auction of Promises.

We have been delighted to receive such a tremendous range of pledges and promises; and grateful thanks are due to the generous donors. Now we need some equally generous bidders to compete for these exciting lots!

The proceeds of this Auction of Promises will further boost the 125 Appeal for the redevelopment of Science facilities at Packwood. This will provide a lasting legacy of our 125th year.

I am indebted to Nick and Jane Jones who have worked very hard to prepare this excellent catalogue of promises. Please support us by coming along to the Auction on Saturday 25th November; or submit your bids in advance if you are unable to be there on the night.

I’ll certainly be there – I’ve already got my eye on several of the lots!
