Local Charities Eggs-pectations exceeded with donation from car dealer group

Swansway Easter Patrol sees the car dealer group donate Easter gifts and essential items to charities across the UK including Chester-based Kidsbank Chester.

For many, Easter is a time to celebrate new beginnings, it’s a time of looking forward with a sense of hope. For many children, they associate this time of year with the treat of an Easter Egg and the fun of an Easter Egg Hunt, but due to the ongoing cost of living crisis, this will be a difficult time for many families.

Working closely with their well-established charity partners across the UK, Swansway has returned with its Easter Patrol, donating Easter Eggs or essential items to those in need. These donations range from Easter Eggs, Easter-themed crafts and gardening supplies, to essential toiletries, household items and food.

Swansway continues to take a considered approach to its charity efforts, understanding that the needs of each of its charity partners differ and that these needs can change over time.

Having developed strong relationships with Chester-based Kidsbank Chester, Swansway liaised directly with the charity on behalf of its Swansway Chester Peugeot and Motor Match Peugeot retailers to collate a bespoke list of donations, with the understanding that each charity should receive items that suit their individual needs.

Cathy Pettingale, Founder and CEO at Kidsbank Chester commented:

“Knowing that many charities are asking for Easter Egg donations at the moment, we know that there will be lots to go around for children in need, so when Swansway Motor Group asked what items we would like to receive, we went with something a bit more practical. The donation of toiletries and washing detergent can be donated to our families, who would often go without. By supplying these items, we can help to free u as much as £6, which can be used for food and energy.”

Swansway Motor Group Director David Smyth summarised:

“As always, our aim is to support our charity partners in a way that best suits them, tailoring our donations is one way that we can achieve this. What’s most important to us is seeing the smiles on the faces of those we have helped.”
