Bid to win Cliff Richard's waistcoat
The Mary How Trust for Cancer Prevention is auctioning the black sequined stage waistcoat which has Sir Cliff’s personal authentication, donated by Anthony and Stella Capo-Bianco from West Chiltington.
The eBay auction will raise funds for the trust’s health screening service, which spots the early signs of cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. Instead of a fixed fee the charity invites donations based on ability to pay, so men and women from all walks of life can benefit.

Hide AdMrs Capo-Bianco said: “We are both very grateful to the Mary How Trust for finding health issues we did not know about.”
She said her husband was given the option of a PSA test:“He asked for information and almost tossed a coin to decide. Luckily, he did have the test, as prostate cancer was diagnosed and has subsequently been treated - this possibly saved his life.
“We think it is time to give the trust’s funds a boost, as well as pleasure to others. Needless to say, we have been Cliff Richard fans for many years and would like to encourage more men to attend a Mary How Trust screening.”
The eBay auction starts at 9pm on Thursday May 11 and is open until Sunday May 21. Follow the link from: www.maryhowtrust.org/news.
