Caravanners who’ve relied on the Camping and Caravanning Club’s data sheets to choose a motor home or find out how to service their tow car may be pleased to hear that a new set of updated sheets have been published.

The new versions were released to members and non-members earlier this month, covering a wide range of camping and caravanning topics and offering a host of tips and advice to help families make the most of their leisure time.

Among the revised data sheets, which are all written by technical experts, are subjects such as matching your car and caravan, winter care for your caravan, gas for caravans and motor homes and stabilisers and trailer control systems.

There are also three brand new sheets covering solar power for campers and caravanners, camping for the disabled and choosing a motor mover for your caravan.

Simon McGrath, editor of Camping and Caravanning magazine, said: “The club has 110 years of experience helping its members get the most out of the great outdoors and these data sheets are an excellent way of passing on some of the technical knowledge we have gained over the years.”
