400th AWS-approved member welcomed into Scheme established in 1978
The Approved Workshop Scheme (AWS) has welcomed the 400th member into its fold, with Just Go Motorhome Service Centre in Toddington, Bedfordshire, joining the ever-expanding nationwide network of touring caravan and motorhome habitation service centres across the UK.
Matthew Jones, director of Just Go Motorhomes said: “Becoming a member of the Approved Workshop Scheme has aligned Just Go with a nationally accepted standard, giving both our existing and new customers an added level of confidence. We believe that this recognition will give us a competitive advantage in the marketplace and boost our business in the process.”
AWS manager Sarah Wigmore continues to lead the expansion and ongoing improvement of the scheme. She said: “We all know that having you caravan or motorhome regularly serviced is crucial to keeping it roadworthy but unless this work is carried out by trained and experienced professionals to a given standard you could be short changed.
“We want to weed out disreputable workshops from the marketplace. That’s why I’m delighted to welcome the 400th company to our Approved Workshop Scheme, as more consumers will enjoy peace of mind.”
The Approved Workshop Scheme has been in existence since 1978 before becoming a a joint enterprise between the NCC, The Caravan Club and The Camping and Caravan Club, managed by the NCC since 2008.
The scheme, which is supported by all major caravan and motorhome manufacturers, allows approved scheme members to service vehicles during the warranty period without invalidating it.
