12 Days of Christmas Online Auction

The You Raise Me Up 12 Days of Christmas Online Auction is a festive way to support families who have experienced the loss of a young adult. Hosted securely on Jumblebee, the auction showcases a range of donated gifts and experiences, with every winning bid helping to fund our bereavement support services for families who have lost a young person aged 16 to 25.

The auction opens at 6.00am on Monday 1 December and closes at 11.59pm on Friday 12 December. Until the opening time, you can browse the lots but you will not be able to place a bid. Items may be updated before the auction begins, so we recommend checking the live listing for the most current information. This is a silent auction. When the event ends, the highest bid on each lot wins and our team will then contact each winning bidder to arrange payment and collection or fulfilment.

Taking part is straightforward. Visit the auction page, review the lot descriptions and images, and sign in or register for a free Jumblebee account when you are ready to bid. Where applicable, you will see any reserve prices, minimum opening bids and bid increments set on a lot. Bidding can only take place between the published opening and closing times, and by placing a bid you agree to purchase the item if you are the final highest bidder when the auction closes.

Get Involved

If you would like to support the event beyond bidding, you can donate a suitable gift or experience for inclusion. Donated items help to broaden the appeal of the auction and raise more funds for our services. Please contact You Raise Me Up and we will provide guidance on suitability and how to supply the item, after which our team will add the details to the Jumblebee listing.

During the auction window, you can return to the Jumblebee page to follow activity on your chosen lots. If a reserve price applies and is not met, the lot will not be awarded. At the end of the event, our team will be in touch with winners directly using the details supplied to Jumblebee. We will confirm the winning amount, take payment and arrange collection or delivery as specified in the lot description. For the most accurate, up to date details on each item, please refer to the live lot pages on Jumblebee throughout the event.
