Oracle Car Finance raises £50,000 for hospice

Oracle Car Finance has raised over £50,000 for local Martin House Children’s Hospice, fundraising internally and at The Motorist on 26 August.

Oracle has been supporting the charity for two years, and confirms the extension of their partnership for a third year.

Oracle Car Finance MD and Founder, Peter Brook, said: “Martin House Children’s Hospice supports families in the local community, and we are in awe of the work that they do and the extent of the positive impact they have in Yorkshire, offering important care and support services.

“The team at Oracle have all come together over the last two years to creatively fundraise, with such fantastic results.

“We wanted to bring together our partnerships, both with The Motorist and our chosen charity, to host a special Supercar Bank Holiday Meet to further fundraise, and this event has now taken our fundraising total over £50,000, which I’m proud to say is due to the dedication of our staff.”

In addition to supercars, there was also an unrestored classic 1989 Porsche 930 Turbo, a pristine Ferrari F8, a Mercedes 300SL, and a McLaren 600LT.

Hannah Finan, Partnerships Executive at Martin House Children’s Hospice, said: “Martin House only receives 1% of funding to support our children and families from across Yorkshire, so events like Supercar Monday with Oracle Finance are vital for us to keep our services going.

“Not only do they help us secure the funds we need to support children and young people with life-limiting illnesses, but they also help us grow awareness, letting people know we are here if they need our support.

“Without these kind of events, Martin House would not survive. Thank you to everyone involved and who supported on the day.”
