Winner of NTTA Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show 2015 receives star quality treatment from Association

The National Trailer and Towing Association (NTTA), one of the leading associations of the UK light trailer and towing industry, is celebrating its 15th year of activity and excellence in tow bar installation and trailer maintenance through its Quality Secured (QS) accreditation scheme, and to celebrate in style offered visitors to this year’s Caravan, Camping & motorhome Show the opportunity for extra special star treatment..

The prize? A fitting of a free tow bar, courtesy of Westfalia-Automotive UK in Bristol, to the car of the lucky winner’s car; the winner? Richard Hickton from Kirkby, in Ashfield.

An overwhelmed Richard said of hearing the news he’d won: “My wife and I were absolutely flabbergasted when we were contacted by the NTTA to say we had won their competition. We attended the Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show at the NEC to look for a new caravan, and we had recently changed our car, so we needed a new tow bar fitting very soon any way – it was perfect timing!

“We found out all about the NTTA at the show and have now experienced first-hand what a Quality Secured member can do – we wouldn’t go anywhere else to have one fitted as we know that it’s done to a high quality standard. Thanks to Kieren and the team for their hard work.”

Phil Holman, chairman of the NTTA, commented on the competition organised: “We were delighted with the response for our competition at the CCM Show 2015, and we were very pleased to contact Richard to let him know we would fit a FREE tow bar to his car by our first ever Quality Secured member – Towbar and Trailers in Chesterfield.”

Of the Quality Secured accreditation scheme the NTTA offer, which sets a benchmark for the industry, Hollman went on: “We are delighted with the success of the Quality Secured scheme over the last 15 years. It gives consumers across the UK confidence when using any of our services and purchasing goods; and the knowledge of doing business with an accredited company that will always give the best service possible with a warranty.”

Congratulations to the lucky winner.
