Preview Ed Sheeran's donated items to the hospice at Martlesham Retail Centre before they go to auction
View Ed Sheeran Auction Lots at Martlesham Retail Centre
Bishop & Miller Auctioneers are once again delighted to be joining forces with St Elizabeth Hospice and Zest with a charity auction with a difference….a pop-up shop and online auction.
For one day only, on Saturday 31 May between 9am and 5pm, you will be able to view over 200 incredible items donated by Ed Sheeran to the St Elizabeth Hospice Martlesham Retail Centre – and you’re invited for an exclusive first look at our special pop-up preview event!
Providing the ‘perfect’ warm-up to Ed’s homecoming gigs at Portman Road this July, our one-day preview event will feature a range of items kindly donated by the Suffolk singing superstar, for you to see up close. From trainers, jackets and t-shirts, through to artwork and a dressing gown – even a pair of his branded ‘budgy smugglers’! There really is something for everyone and plenty for Ed’s fans – aka ‘Sheerios’ – to enjoy.
“We are incredibly grateful to Ed for generously donating such a fantastic collection of items for the auction – which will be a really special opportunity for Ed Sheeran fans.
“Our thanks also go to Bishop & Miller for hosting the auction, which will generate essential funds for our services.
“Each year, our hospice team supports thousands of people across East & Mid-Suffolk, Great Yarmouth, and Waveney. We rely on donations and fundraising to continue this vital work, and every penny raised from the auction will directly benefit those in our care.”
Clare Chater, Director of Income Generation at St Elizabeth Hospice
We will be officially opening the pop-up shop at 9am on 31 May, and after viewing all the wonderful lots, you will be able to bid online through the Bishop & Miller website, where a themed online only auction will run from 31 May until 15 June.
Ed’s support to the hospice is not a new connection, over the past few years he has donated items which have gone on to raise thousands and thousands of pounds for the independent Suffolk charity.

“Once again Ed has been very generous to the hospice and we are delighted to be doing something a little different this time. A pop-up shop gives everyone the chance to take a look at what has been donated and the objects you can potentially bid on. We also love to support the hospice with their fundraising and we can’t wait to see how this pop- up shop and online auction goes.”
