Valuation Day for Guns and related sporting items at GWCT HQ in Hampshire on Wednesday 10th April
The Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust and Holts Auctioneers are working together to offer a solution to what to do with your guns when there’s no one in the house to use them anymore. In most cases guns and sporting items are left to a family member or sold by Executors with the proceeds becoming part of the estate. Sometimes people choose to bequeath guns to the GWCT which then benefits from the proceeds at auction.
Over the past few years this has happened more frequently and Holts Auctioneers have been happy to handle the collection and sale of the items in a very sensitive and discreet way.
Even if you are simply giving up shooting or have a gun that you no longer use you might allow GWCT to benefit by having Holts to sell it on your behalf and donating part or all of the proceeds to the charity.
If you would be interested in discussing either leaving a gun to the GWCT or donating the proceeds of the sale of a gun to the GWCT, Corinne Duggins would be happy to talk to you confidentially about the process and the best way to proceed.
Holts Auctioneers, who have just celebrated their 25th anniversary as Organisational Members of the GWCT, are pleased to give preferential rates to anyone wishing to do this and will also include an appropriate note (if wanted) in the lot description.
