Hammer proceeds of 1.8 million from yesterday’s auction will primarily benefit the Distiller’s Charity’s Youth Action Fund, which aims to transform the lives of young people in Scotland aged between 16 and 25, by helping them to develop knowledge, confidence, resilience, and skills.

Yesterday’s result means that the first two Distillers One of One Auctions have raised a combined total of £4.2m for charity and we are delighted that we’ve been able to participate in both.
