A Nottingham curator has secured a stunning collection of work from world famous international artists to boost the Pakistan Floods Appeal.

Turner prize winners Grayson Perry and Jeremy Deller are just two highly respected artists who responded to the call to help and have pledged their support.

Curator Saira Lloyd from Bramcote Hills decided she could not sit back whilst the aftermath of the floods continues to wreak havoc on the lives of ordinary people in Pakistan – the country where she lived until she was 10 years old. An artist herself, Saira decided to email artists, arts organisations and creative businesses asking them to donate a piece of work for an art auction – and she has had an incredibly positive response.
