The same Club, just better...

There is an organisation called "The Motorhome Club" or something similar.  Will they be changing their ethos and name?  Anyone on here a member there as well who could report back what the motorhome members are saying?

It's nice to see motorhomer's recognised as members of the caravan club. 

What a waste of member's money as it is going to cost thousands and thousands of pounds to rebrand the logo to look like an ice cream parlour.  I doubt very much if the logo change will draw in any new members.

Which members were consulted about the change?  The logo change will neither cause us to leave or stay with the club.  However hardly an important announcement as it basically serves no purpose except to boost the ego of some marketing bod who wants to justify their salary.

BTW why don't they spend money fixing the website rather than throwing it away on rebranding the Caravan Club? 

Since the two largest motoring clubs were put into private ownership they have not changed their logos or names ,is it because are still a name that reflects the ethos of their outlook towards their "customers"and they are a trusted names?

Who is this new organisation that has come onto the leisure industry ?,

Ps i have got two years to go before the big 50 can you send me a proper cc sticker early or save me a proper cc one as that is the club i was joined in by my late FIL

We're sending out new stickers as we speak so expect to see yours soon 

Like other members, I too was a bit shocked at this change to our club. I can see the point is to try and attract a wider audience but alas the main thing I think will cause a decline in the hobby eventually is the fact that all us old fogies with unlimited licences are gradually going to disappear and without the industry making much lighter family vans (not those silly 'Swift Basecamp' things) that do not require a special towing test then the whole concept is eventually doomed for both clubs and the caravan industry. 

What a shame. All that history and world wide kudos wiped away. It was quite simply THE Caravan Club. A proud and simple name now gone without any consultation of members. Within a short period of time people will not remember the heritage or make any connection. What a shame.

Please look at the reasons behind the name and logo change and FOUR VALUES

Inspire

Simplify

Puoneer

Inclusive

The process is NOT to pander to Motorhome owners but an attempt to set the Club up for the future.

Failure to realise the wider objective simply restricts our appreciation of what the Club is trying to do.

Does that include as my avatar,but then i have only been transfered to this new kid on the block since 1030 hrs today

Can I have a cc 50 early only two more years

As a new member to the club and a new motorhomer I'm glad the club have chosen to be more inclusive, so well done to the club for taking this step. As a nation we're thankfully living longer and have more disposable income which many are choosing to use by purchasing a caravan or motorhome. I went the NEC show last October and was told that the growth area in the sector over the coming years will be motorhomes. So for the club to be inclusive and recognise this trend seems logical.

Come on guys the Club management has done this to advance our Club and take it forward.
