The auctions, commencing on November 16, November 26, and December 3, will feature starting prices of £9.99 for each item.
Among the unique aspects of this charity drive is the decision not to wash or iron the garments before sale, maintaining an authentic connection to the artist.
Each purchased item will be accompanied by a signed letter of authenticity from Ed Sheeran himself.
Kevin Clements, EACH director of fundraising and communications, expressed gratitude for Sheeran’s ongoing support, emphasizing the positive impact on the charity’s mission to provide care for children and families dealing with life-threatening conditions.
