    Howards Motor Group Shining Stars: The Prince Of Wales School Young Carers

The afternoon was packed with festive cheer, as the young carers:

 Explored the stunning Christmas displays and selected a special decoration to take home, courtesy of Howards Motor Group.

 Enjoyed hot chocolate and cake at The Engine Room Café.

 Received delightful Christmas goody bags from MyTime Young Carers, a Bournemouth-based charity dedicated to supporting young carers.

 
Adalynn, one of the young carers, expressed her excitement about the day:

"I love my new decoration and gift bag, and my jumper is really cool! The hot chocolate and cake were yummy too!"


Mrs. Brooker, Emotional Literacy Support Assistant (ELSA) and Young Carers Coordinator at the school, highlighted the importance of such experiences:

"It was heartwarming to see the joy on the children’s faces as they explored the festive displays and enjoyed some well-deserved treats. Our young carers often take on so much responsibility, and it’s vital for them to feel valued and supported."

 The Prince of Wales School defines young carers as children under the age of 18 who help to look after a family member with a disability, illness, or other needs. Often taking on responsibilities beyond their years, young carers demonstrate exceptional empathy and resilience.


Headteacher Mr. Gary Spracklen added:

 "We are incredibly proud of our young carers and the compassion they show every day. Today’s trip was a chance to celebrate their contributions and offer a moment of joy and connection, thanks to the generosity of Howards Motor Group and MyTime Young Carers. This is what community support looks like at its finest."

 The school continues to champion the recognition and support of young carers, ensuring they feel seen, valued, and celebrated for their extraordinary contributions.

  • 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.
