This year, Danny has once again laced up his running shoes, embarking on an ambitious mission to run four marathons in Tokyo, Paris, London, and Chicago. While this feat is indeed commendable, it's not the first time Danny has taken strides for a cause close to his heart. His commitment to Weston Hospicecare goes back several years, marked by both his involvement in the community and previous marathon endeavors.

Weston Hospicecare, for over 30 years, has been a beacon of support for individuals and families facing life-limiting illnesses in Weston-super-Mare and North Somerset. All services, provided free of charge, encompass palliative care for patients with various conditions, such as cancer, motor neurone disease, Parkinson's disease, and other life-limiting illnesses. The hospice's reach extends to Clevedon, Yatton, Cheddar, Axbridge, Burnham, Highbridge, and the surrounding areas, providing essential care for a population of more than 170,000.

Danny's involvement with Weston Hospicecare predates his current marathon challenge. As an advocate for the hospice, he has worked tirelessly to support their initiatives in the past. This year's marathon series is a continuation of his commitment, a testament to his enduring dedication to making a difference in the lives of those touched by the hospice's services.

All efforts towards Weston Hospicecare do not go unnoticed, or undervalued. Many extraordinary moments are made possible by donations to Weston Hospicecare. From arranging dream trips for patients to meet their idols, like the memorable encounter with scientist Brian Cox, to creating special memories for families, the hospice strives to uplift spirits and bring joy to those facing challenging times.

"I just want to say thank you to everyone who helped with our Brussels trip to see Brian Cox. The trip went really well, and my son was totally blown away meeting Brian Cox. This is truly a special memory for him and all of us."

A Patients Relative

As Danny continues his marathon journey, we invite our community to rally behind him and Weston Hospicecare.

In the spirit of community, Howards Motor Group expresses gratitude to Danny Street for exemplifying the values that define us—compassion, dedication, and a commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of those around us. Together, let's celebrate Danny's strides and join hands to support Weston Hospicecare in their vital work.

  • 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.
