“Bridgerton” star Nicola Coughlan and “Harry Potter” series actor Paapa Essiedu are among more than 20 celebrities who are auctioning off meaningful items to raise money for students in Gaza.

The auction, coordinated by charity Phoenix Space, will begin on July 27 and also features items from Brian Cox, Gary Lineker, Paloma Faith, Maxine Peake, Juliet Stevenson, Charlotte Church, Harriet Walter, Vanessa Redgrave and Janet Suzman. It was spurred by the U.K. government’s announcement that it will help students in Gaza travel to and study in the U.K., but they must have fully-funded scholarships.
