Willie Thorne’s former wife Jill Saxby is auctioning a cue used by the late snooker star in aid of 20-20 Voice Cancer.
“Willie played all his life with his one and only cue, from the age of 14,” Jill, Patron of 20-20 Voice Cancer told The Leader.
“His cue and case is for auction to raise funds for his charity of choice – 20-20 Voice Cancer,” said Jill.
“Money raised will help early diagnosis of this little known cancer, that affects so many,” added Jill.
An opening bid of £2,000 has already been made for the cue.
