Maddox Gallery is organising a virtual exhibition called Art For Heroes to raise money for the non-profit, which will include weekly auctions with all proceeds being donated directly to new charity HEROES.
Founded by NHS doctors and nurses on the frontline fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, HEROES aims to support the welfare and wellbeing of NHS staff.
This will involve acquiring much needed medical equipment, delivering meals to the hospitals, and helping NHS workers with everything from parking costs to childcare.

Tamara and Jay, who gave £25,000 towards the cause themselves, raised over £500,000 for NHS workers in 24 hours, as stars such as Boy George, Joe Cole and Noel Fielding made donations to the virtual exhibition.
Steven Gerrard, Abbey Clancy, Ashley Roberts, Sam Curran, Jamie Redknapp and Rio Ferdinand have also pledged their support.
The couple have recruited over 30 artists including David Yarrow, Mr. Brainwash and musician Boy George to take part and have devised an e-certificate to be sent to those who donate as a way of expressing their gratitude.
The virtual exhibition launches on April 6, with the first auction being held on April 12, and then subsequently each week during April.

Initially, Joe was keen for Tamara and Jay to raise awareness for the charity on social media but the pair were inspired to create their own strand of the initiative.
Jay explained to MailOnline: ‘The charity was only formed four weeks ago.
‘Rather than us just promoting and donating, which I’m happy to do and I have done, I felt we could do something more, that’s where Art For Heroes came from.
‘We contacted some artists to see if they would be willing and able to donate a piece of art and when the artwork is sold the proceeds will go to the charity.
‘The artists have donated the works in full and if they sell then all the proceeds go to the charity.
‘There’s also the option on the website to just donate now, if you’re not necessarily interested in buying art.
‘All of the artwork is priced 20 per cent lower than what it would normally sell for in a gallery, so that’s an added incentive.’
