thecharityauctioneer.uk →As a charity auctioneer, I do not just run auctions, I turn them into high-energy, high-bidding entertainment. Whether you want a classic podium style or a wireless-mic, work-the-room approach, I tailor the night to smash your fundraising targets. With years of experience running charity auctions across the UK, I have helped countless organisations exceed their targets and create unforgettable nights for their guests.
My approach blends expert stage management with genuine entertainment, keeping guests engaged and excited to give. Every event benefits from the same read-the-room instinct that comes from a broadcast background: fast-paced, professional, and built to drive bids higher.
The offer
What Kevin offers as your charity auctioneer.
Live charity auctions
High-energy live auction hosting that builds competitive bidding, drives lots to their maximum value and keeps the room buzzing from the opening bid to the final gavel.
Live pledges
The most powerful fundraising tool at any charity event. Tiered giving options that create an immediate emotional connection with donors and consistently inspire generosity.
Fundraising games
Interactive games that add energy and excitement while boosting donations, keeping guests engaged, entertained and giving throughout the evening.
Fundraising strategy
Structure, lot selection, lot ordering and timing worked out before the event, so every speech, auction segment and pledge moment lands at the right point of the night.
Free silent auction software
Run your silent auction on my own free silent auction software, zero licensing costs and zero commission, so every penny raised stays with the charity.
Full fundraising evenings
Live auctions, pledge drives, fundraising games and raffles run as one cohesive evening, not separate elements bolted together.
Client results
H. Prince Albert II of Monaco at the Yacht Club in Monte Carlo. Due to his brilliant auction and donations we raised over €1,000,000 so a big congrats on this fantastic job!
Kevin was phenomenal! He owned the room as he conducted the Live Auction, more than doubling our target! This was followed by Live Pledges where Kevin once again worked his magic and exceeded expectations.
Before you book
What to check when hiring a charity auctioneer.
A full fundraising strategy?
Not just an auction. Structure, lot selection and timing should be worked out with you before the evening begins, so nothing is left to chance on the night.
Multiple formats, seamlessly?
Live auctions, pledge drives, fundraising games and raffles should run as a single cohesive evening, not separate elements bolted together.
Genuine audience engagement?
A background in TV presenting and live events means reading a room and adjusting in real time. The energy at the end of the night is never an accident.
Advice on sourcing lots?
Which lots to pursue, which to avoid, and how to structure the bidding order to maximise what each lot raises.
Kevin also hosts.
