We are proud to share an incredible act of generosity from Mears’ valued fleet supplier, LCB VEHICLES LTD., who have gone above and beyond by donating a van free of charge – indefinitely – to support the work of St Andrew’s Hospice.

Louise O’Donnell, Head of Income Generation at St Andrew’s Hospice said: “When we reached out to Kirstie at Mears North Lanarkshire with an urgent SOS as our vehicle had gone off the road unexpectedly, we had no idea it would lead to such fantastic generosity.

“I’m so grateful to Findlay and everyone at LCB Vehicles for their incredible generosity. Their donation of the van will help us with logistics; ensuring all of our fundraising event supplies are transported safely. For example, to Tinto Hill over the next two weeks as many S1 pupils take on the annual climb to raise funds for the Hospice. And to our Midnight Walk in June. Their help in maintaining the vehicle will also help to save costs, which is a huge support, especially in these challenging times.

“This is a wonderful donation, and I can’t thank Findlay and LCB Vehicles enough for doing this to support St Andrew’s Hospice.”

Findlay Bishop, owner of LCB, commented: “We’re honoured to support a request for help from Mears Group PLC on behalf of St Andrew’s Hospice. When their van went off the road with so many fundraising activities already in the diary, we jumped at the chance to help. It’s more than a van, it’s a vehicle for hope.”
