This clapperboard is from the final ever episode of the hit TV series, and has been signed by 12 members of the cast.

“We’re hoping to be able to raise as much money as possible from the sale of this amazing piece of Gavin and Stacey memorabilia because while we can’t stop a child’s life from being short, we can walk alongside that family every step of the way, through life, death and beyond.
“And every penny raised through the sale of this board will help us to reach even more families who need our support.”
