    Fundraising for Finns Foundation.

    Howards are proud to support their staff when they take on fundraising efforts. This time we are supporting Jacob Hollings, of Howards Toyota, whilst he takes on the Cardiff Half Marathon, fundraising for Finns Foundation.



Finns Foundation is a charity which was set up in memory of Finn Mccabe. Finn is the little brother of Jack, Jacobs sisters partner.

He was diagnosed with DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma) on 25th July 2017. Sadly he passed away just short of his 13th Birthday.

As many parents would, his mum and dad gave up work to be with Finn, and to support him as much as they could. This as you can imagine, came with huge financial implications.

The aim of Finns Foundation is to raise money so that parents who have a child with a terminal illness can be given grants, to spend how they want, whether that is relieving some pressure of the bills, or choosing to take a holiday to make some precious memories.


Jacob training


Jacob is trying to raise as much as he can for this amazing cause, and he is fund raising for taking part in the Cardiff Half Marathon. 
20% of all donations go to DIPG research.

Jacobs target is £1000 and Howards have made a donation towards this, if you feel you would like to support Jacob then please do so on his JustGiving page, alternatively we have included a link to Finns Foundation to donate below. 

We all wish Jacob lots of luck, when this takes place on 1st October.

  • Howard Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howard Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
