Entering its seventh year of continued support with the non-profit community interest company Circus Starr, Swansway Motor Group has announced its latest donation of £3,740, through the sale of 187 Motability vehicles in January, February and March. 

Looking ahead to the second quarter of the year, Swansway is anticipating reaching a total of £100,000 in donations to Circus Starr, with the total over the last 6 years currently sitting at £99,280. 

On behalf of their Blackburn Audi, Preston Audi and Volkswagen Van Centre Lancashire retailers, Swansway Motor Group donate £20 for every vehicle sold on the Motability Scheme. Enabling a child and their carer to experience the magic of the circus. 

Circus Starr is currently touring the UK on their spring tour, which sees the return of their well-loved Big Top. The tour will run until the end of June and includes two shows in the Lancashire area. 

Sarah Hall, communications and engagement manager at Circus Starr commented: "As always we appreciate Swansway Motor Group’s continued support and we are looking forward to seeing their team at our show at Nantwich Town FC. Their latest donation enables children and their carers to come and see us on our Spring Tour.” 

Swansway Motor Group director David Smyth added: "We are so pleased that our seventh year of partnership with Circus Starr has got off to a good start, it’s so important to us here at Swansway that we support the fantastic and important work that they do. We are looking forward to celebrating reaching £100,000 worth of donations later this year, it’s certainly an exciting milestone in our partnership.”
