A PAIR of hospitality tickets to next month's Johnstone's Paint Trophy final are being auctioned off to raise funds for Kevin Moore's care.

The former Saints defender was diagnosed with Pick's Disease - similar to Alzheimer's - about two years ago.

The 51-year-old has deteriorated since that point.

Moore still lives in Otterbourne with his wife, Mandy, but requires round-the-clock care, visiting the White House, in Curdridge, seven days a week.

The lucky winner will enjoy a fantastic day out at Wembley, watching Saints take on Carlisle in luxury on Sunday, March 28.

The two 'Club Diamond Wembley Package' seats include a hot and cold buffet brunch, with complimentary beer, wine or soft drinks from two hours before kick-off.

At half-time, freshly brewed coffee and biscuits will be served.

There will be a post-match selection of afternoon tea, sandwiches, gourmet pies and complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks for one hour after the final whistle.

The winners will also receive a free programme and two tickets within the Bobby Moore seat block at Wembley.

The auction is being run by the same team that have put together April's golf day in aid of Kevin.

Johnstone's Paint have donated the tickets.

The auction will close at midnight on Monday, March 1. Bids start at £400 for the pair.

To enter, you must submit a sealed bid, complete with your name, address and contact details. These must be sent to JPT competition, c/o 1 St Simon Close, Locks Heath, Southampton SO31 6DH.

The winner will be contacted by the organisers and also announced in the Daily Echo. Please note, this is not an Echo competition.

For any further information, please email organiser Richard Becheley at richard@bbmltd.com Teams for the golf day, at Meon Valley, on April 9 have already been sold, as have tickets for the dinner.
