On the 21st of September, Rolls-Royce opened the doors of their Goodwood plant in West Sussex for an evening of art and Philanthropy in support of allergy research at Evelina London Children’s Hospital.

The ‘Evelina Art for Allergy X Dine on the Line’ event saw art and automotive excellence collide, with the star of the show undoubtedly being a collaboration between Rolls-Royce and artist Marc Quinn. Other works by some of the world’s most sought-after artists went under the hammer, including pieces by British artists Jake & Dinos Chapman, David Yarrow, Harland Miller and Mary McCartney.

Reflecting on the event, Professor Gideon Lack of Evelina London said, “The generous donations from the Art for Allergy event will make a dramatic difference to our research programme and to our mission to prevent allergies, to protect against allergies, and to ultimately cure allergies in children.”
