PCX Scooters for NHS Front Line Workers & Volunteer Responders

POSTED: 02/04/2020

Proud to provide NHS Front Line Workers & NHS Volunteer Responders with 20 PCX scooters to support the care sector

  • Our Honda Maidstone dealership supplies 20 Honda PCX scooters to NHS Front Line Workers & Volunteer Responders
  • PCXs to facilitate deliveries of medical supplies and prescriptions
  • 20-strong fleet to alleviate limited delivery capacity in area impacting the most vulnerable

We are very pleased that our Maidstone Honda dealership is ableto supply 20 Honda PCX scooters to support NHS Front Line Workers & NHS Volunteer Responders with pharmaceutical deliveries in the local community, answering the nation-wide call to help the NHS help us amidst the pandemic.

Keen to lend a hand in these challenging times, we registered 20 PCX scooters for deployment by the NHS Volunteer Responders scheme, effective immediately. The best-selling PTW (Powered Two-Wheeler) of 2019 will be pressed into service to assist with deliveries of prescriptions and medical supplies to members of the local community most at risk from the virus, to stay well.

Often the default choice for couriers in urban environments, thanks to its slim form, agile dynamics and large under seat storage space, the PCX makes the perfect, easy-riding partner to NHS Front Line Workers, Community Response volunteers and NHS Transport volunteers tasked with assisting pharmacies in the fulfilment of prescriptions and the transport of medical goods between NHS services and sites.

Neil Fletcher, Head of Motorcycles at Honda UK said: “It’s inspiring how quickly 750,000 people signed-up to NHS Volunteer Responders in the UK. I’m delighted to see Honda Maidstone playing its part at this difficult time, despite being closed for regular business. We wholly endorse their decision to supply the scooters to boost all-important delivery capacity in the local community, ensuring those at high-risk receive the supplies they need.”

Harry Pearce, General Manager of Maidstone Honda said: “We’ve been a proud member of the local community since 2013 and want to do what we can to lend a hand to both NHS Front Line Workers and NHS Volunteer Responders. Those at high-risk who have been told not to leave their homes for 12 weeks have it doubly tough, they can’t shop for groceries or collect medical prescriptions, so depend on volunteers. It’s these volunteers we’re hoping to mobilise with this fleet of PCX scooters – it’s the least we could do and I really hope it makes a difference.”

Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) 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 Laguna Motorcycles Limited (which include multiple trading names: Laguna Motorcycles, Laguna Performance Centre, Laguna Triumph, Maidstone Honda, Maidstone Harley-Davidson® and Kent Motorcycles) to act as a credit broker, not 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 are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

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 most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

Different lenders 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; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required. Please see our complaints page for our complaints policiy and regulatory complaints.
