TICKETS are still on sale for an Italian dinner and art auction in aid of Swindon Carers Centre.

The event, which takes place at San Marco Italian Restaurant in Faringdon Road on Monday, will see more than 30 pieces of art from local professional artists auctioned by Stephen Dalton, an independent professional auctioneer.

A three-course menu will be served, followed by a glass of limoncello which has been imported from Italy especially for this event. Pre-ordering your menu for the auction is essential, so bookings must be made in advance.

Community fundraising chairwoman Melanie Stanbury said: “This Swindon charity serves the needs of an ever-growing number of local carers whose own health is seriously affected by the daily strain of caring for a friend or family member with a physical or mental health disability. The carers at the centre are all ages ranging from five years old to 97 years old.”

Tickets cost £20. Book via fundraising@swindoncarers.org.uk
