HM The Queen visits ambassador
HM The Queen has visited Chris Allwood’s eBay social enterprise Auction My Stuff.

On 14 March, Her Majesty took a tour of the East London Tate & Lyle sugar refinery and paid a visit to Auction My Stuff, which is based on the same site.

The Queen was given a demonstration of how to sell on Auction My Stuff’s eBay shop by Nyron Walters, 24, who is six weeks through a 10-week work placement, and watched as Nyron photographed and prepared items for sale.
 

“I want lots of talent from the City and Canary Wharf to get involved with social enterprises”
– Chris Allwood, Auction My Stuff
