G3 remarketing auctions over 400 vehicles weekly direct from fleet, financing, manufacturer and leasing companies online from its base in Castleford West Yorkshire.

Speaking of the decision to donate every month, director Matt Dale said: 'After personally experiencing the fantastic work that the Prince of Wales hospice in Pontefract do there was no difficult decision to make when deciding what charity partnership G3 would take. G3 hope that our regular donations will go some way to help other families at particularly difficult times.'

Tom Marley, head of development, commented: 'G3 remarketing takes business ethics and social responsibility extremely seriously. If we can go some way to giving back to the local community or indeed help in some small way we will try. Hopefully this will be a very successful long term partnership.'

The aim of The Prince of Wales Hospice is to provide specialist palliative care. The hospice costs £2 million pounds a year to run but only about one-third of this is received from the NHS, while the rest is generated by the funds raised through its charity shops as well as donations from people, companies and community groups.
