Steven Eagell Group, the UK’s largest Toyota and Lexus retailer, has secured grants for local community causes.
The grants were obtained as part of the Toyota and Lexus Community Funds, programmes of small grants designed to help local charities, schools and community projects.
Applications are put forward by retail centres on behalf of projects in their local community.
Its Toyota St Albans branch secured a £2,000 grant for Cassiobury Infant and Nursery School, which will be used to build an outdoor shelter in the playground for the children to use as a play area on wet or cold days.
Its Toyota Rayleigh branch secured a £1,800 grant for Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund. The donation will help the charity to continue supporting children and their families through the challenging and difficult cancer journey, including diagnosis, treatment and beyond.
Additionally, a £1,800 grant was secured by the Group’s Lexus Milton Keynes branch for Headway MK, offering rehabilitation services to those who have suffered a brain injury,.
Gary Smith, managing director, Steven Eagell Group, said: “We’re delighted to secure these grants for some outstanding local causes.
“Our business has expanded rapidly in recent years, and the grants available via the Toyota and Lexus Community Funds are a brilliant way for us to strengthen connections with the communities in which we operate, supporting individuals, causes and charities that work tirelessly to improve lives.”
