Swansway Motor Group has donated £6,675 to Circus Star, taking the total to over £100,000 in just seven years.

Circus Star - the 'circus with a purpose' - provide entertainment for children with disabilities and families facing challenges such as domestic violence, low incomes or bereavement.

For every vehicle sold at a Swansway dealership on the Motability scheme, £25 is donated to enable a child and their carer to attend a Circus Starr show.

This includes sales at Staffordshire locations, Stoke Audi and Stafford Audi.

Circus Starr begins their next tour in January, with shows taking place up and down the UK from 10 January to 2 February.

For each vehicle sold on the Swansway Motability Scheme, £25 will be donated to Circus Starr (Swansway Motor Group).

Sarah Hall, from Circus Starr, said: "We really appreciate Swansway Motor Group's ongoing support, over the past 7 years, the relationship has gone from strength to strength, with their donations helping us to provide the magic of the Circus to children who unfortunately would otherwise miss out on such opportunities.

"We're looking forward to what the partnership brings going forward and to see their donations taking effect in the Midlands area on our Winter tour."

Swansway Motor Group Director, David Smyth, said: "It was brilliant that we were able to follow up the £100,000 landmark donation with an impactful donation this Autumn.

"Over the past 7 years, I've been privileged to see the phenomenal and meaningful work that Circus Starr carries out and we're looking forward to seeing what the future of the partnership brings."
