Car dealer group Swansway has kicked off its festive mission to bring smiles to children and families in Bolton.
For the 10th Christmas in a row, the motor group has put on the road its Swansway Santa Patrol, donating Christmas gifts to those in need.
Items donated have ranged from toys for babies, children and teens, to Christmas food supplies, and warm winter clothing.
On behalf of their Greater Manchester-based retailer, Swansway Honda Bolton, Motor Match Bolton, Swansway Honda Stockport, Motor Match Stockport, Oldham Volkswagen, and Volkswagen Van Centre Oldham, Swansway has worked alongside several charities in the Greater Manchester area.
These include BACKUP North West, Bolton Lions, Endeavour Project, Fortalice, St Peter and St Paul’s RC Primary School in Bolton, Reach Out to the Community, St Herbert’s RC Primary School in Oldham and Homestart-HOST.
As part of Swansway’s continued efforts to support their charity partners with the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, the car dealer group has tailored its donations to each charity's specific needs.
Sandra Crompton from the Bolton Lions Club said: “The members and volunteers of Bolton Lions Club wish to say a massive thank you to Swansway for the generous donation of toys to this year's Christmas Toy Appeal, over 150 in total.
“This will help us to support over 910 Bolton families and will bring many smiles to many children.”
Swansway Motor Group Director David Smyth said: “Christmas should be a time of joy and celebration for everyone, no matter what your circumstances may be.
“Our Swansway Santa Patrol aims to spread some Christmas magic to those children and families who need it the most. “
