"Since 1975, we at The Mary Peters Trust have empowered hundreds of young athletes to pursue their sporting dreams and become champions. Your support for our annual Sport Inspires auction will help us nurture the champions of tomorrow.
"Our festive fundraising lunch takes place on Friday 21st November 2025 at Belfast's Europa Hotel when our remarkable auction will reach its finale. Online bidding is now open, and our auction agenda features a range of 'money can't buy' prizes - from signed guitars donated by Ed Sheeran and Sir Van Morrison to unique artworks by Irish artist Neil Shawcross and former James Bond actress, Jane Seymour.
"Also under the gavel is a uniquely 'royal' whiskey tour and tasting, a prestigious Royal Wedding Cake and box as well as an Ireland rugby shirt with signatures from all members of the 2024 Six Nations winning Ireland squad as well as boxing gloves signed by a trio of boxing greats.
"We look forward to your bids online but if you can join us at the event on Friday 21st November to help us celebrate 50 years of the Mary Peters Trust, you'll meet and hear from some of our brightest young sporting stars of the future.
