MotorVise answers Ben’s charity appeal
MotorVise has responded to an urgent call by automotive charity Ben to plug its £1m funding shortfall by launching a festive-themed ‘Xmas Do-nation’ appeal.
The firm is handing over the £1,000 it intended to spend on its now cancelled staff Christmas party to Ben.
Fraser Brown, founder and managing director of MotorVise, said: “We are naturally disappointed at not being able to hold a staff party and having already set aside the £1,000 cost, we decided Ben was a deserving destination for that money.
“We’d really like to see, across the whole nation, automotive businesses donate a proportion of the money they would have spent on a Christmas party to our ‘Do-nation’ appeal – because right now this charity and the people in our industry need that support more than ever.”
His appeal has already been answered, with Daksh Gupta, the charity’s vice president and group managing director of Marshall Group, pledging £10,000.
Gupta said: “Ben needs our support and I urge everyone within the industry to do the right thing and dig deep.”
