DENBY Dale and District Lions Club are hoping to encourage people hand over their household clutter.

People are being urged to empty their attics, garages and cellars to provide lots for the club's bi-annual Charity Attic Auction - and to make your clear-out really simple members of the Lions will come and take your junk away from you.

"All people need to do is clear out their clutter and we'll collect it," said activities chairman Linton Bentley.

The auction is being held on Sunday, November 20, in Shelley Village Hall with viewing at noon and the auction starting at 1pm. The auctioneer will be David Hoskins.

The last auction was held at Shelley High School and raised £1,300.

This year's event will benefit Denby Dale and District Lions Club charities and the Village Hall.

The auctions have been organised over the last 12 years raising thousands of pounds for charity.
