Coldplay host 'End Of Decade' auction

Coldplay are selling ten years' worth of band memorabilia to help vulnerable young people.

The band's 'End Of Decade' auction will get underway on December 17 on eBay and will include items such as instruments, stage equipment, costumes from the 'Vida La Viva' tour and platinum discs.

Cash raised from the sale, which runs until 5pm GMT on December 31, will go to Kids Company, which the group described on their website as "an incredible charity that helps vulnerable children and young people in London".

A catalogue of all the lots up for auction will be released soon.
