    Howards Helps Support A Green Garden

    We are proud to announce that this year, we will be supporting a show garden at the RHS exclusive Malvern Spring Festival, which will be named the ‘Woodcutters’ garden…

This year we will be supporting a show garden at the exclusive RHS Malvern Spring Festival which will be taking place on the 5th-8th of May. The show garden that Howards are supporting this year will be called the Woodcutters garden.

The RHS Malvern Spring Festival is an annual event held at the Three Counties showground and has been going strong since 1985. The event opens up the festival season, with it being one of the first major shows of the year. At the show will be stunning show gardens, plants and flower displays.

The Woodcutters garden that we will be sponsoring is based on local garden designer Mark Walker’s book – The Woodcutters story. The book is definitely worth a read if you love flowers, herbs and the natural world, and all profits from this book will be donated to cancer research.

The garden is also receiving lots of help from students attending Weston South West Skills Campus (Locking Road), who will be mentored by Mark Walker and Pete Lane of Weston College. From this experience, students will hopefully gain valuable life skills in trades like landscaping, construction and horticulture, which will give them the skills and knowledge to pursue a career in each industry. After the show garden has been exhibited, it will be rebuilt back at the college for future learning and teaching purposes.

Other businesses supporting the Woodcutters garden include Badman & Badman who are supplying bespoke carpentry and joinery skills, as well as Fountain Timber for milling of timber. Brandon Tool Hire will also be supplying the tools for the build.

Keep an eye out on Facebook and Twitter for updates and progress on the Woodcutters Garden.

  • Howards 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 Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not 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 are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    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 most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders 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; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

    All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
