Sandicliffe FordStore Leicester Support School Trip of a Lifetime!

Millgate School on Scott Street in Leicester is a city maintained day and residential special school for boys aged between 11 and 16 who have social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. The school works tirelessly to meet the needs of some of the most disadvantaged children in the local community. All of the students have a Statement of Special Educational Needs and have dealt with hardships that no child should ever have to endure. Social, emotional and mental health difficulties of the students means that they all require a greater level of care and support. The school strives to ensuring that each student has the best support, education and experiences in life.

When the school approached Nik Gokani, Sandicliffe FordStore Leicester Manager to help with providing an additional Ford S-Max to the one that the school currently owns for a trip to France in a few weeks time, he was quick to respond. Eight lucky students were picked to travel to France due to their attitude to learning and progress shown through the academic year. Many of the boys have never been out of Leicestershire so the trip to France with trips to the D-Day Experience and American War Cemetry will surely be life-changing. As well as the educational element of the trip, Leroy Scrimshire KS3 Phase Leader stated "we also fully intend for this visit to be as fun and engaging as possible for our boys, who we firmly believe deserve the same opportunities as other children their age". 

In total the trip will cover approximately 700 miles over the UK & France combined. Nik Gokani added "at Sandicliffe we always love to get involved with such events to help local community projects and enable these go ahead with our support where we can". The boys were pleased to pick up the Ford S-Max model along with staff from Millgate School and we would all like to wish the students the best time in France and we are delighted to support such a rewarding school who's motto of 'Transforming Lives and Inspiring Futures' ensures that this trip will do just that!

‘Used Car Disclaimer’
Some of our vehicles have been sourced from Manufacturer buy back schemes or selected Fleets. As a result whilst we can confirm the number of registered keepers we cannot confirm how many drivers a vehicle has had. We can confirm that the vehicle has passed a comprehensive AA Approved check carried out by a manufacturer approved technician and has a full HPI Provenance check meaning we can guarantee its lifetime history.

Sandicliffe Garage Ltd and Sandicliffe 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 Sandicliffe Garage Ltd and Sandicliffe Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as 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 can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. 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 best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may 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, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
