Welcome to the Caravan and Motorhome Club.

Ever since we came together as a group of outdoor enthusiasts 110 years ago, our Club has continued on a journey of discovery. It's time for us to make some changes for the better by redefining who we are to help you get the most of the great outdoors.

I’m sure you all have lots of questions, please post your feedback and queries in this thread.

What does our new logo mean? We created a video to explain how we created it:

There seems to be a mistake in the logo. It says Since 1907 Caravan and Motorhome Club.

Should that not read Since 2017

My missus changed her name when she married me

By your logic - should she alter her date of birth?

Cheers

Hi JVB,

The change in name and logo were based on your feedback and in consultation with your representatives on the Committee. Together, we’re embarking on a journey of investment in the future of our Club.

I have been a member of the Caravan Club since 1975 and am appalled that the Club has taken this decision without any consultation whatsoever with its membership. I believe that the Chairman should report to the membership and explain what the actual cost of implementing these changes will amount to and what guaranteed benefits will be derived from these changes. The cost of signage alone must be many thousands of pounds and will also have a knock on effect on the centres.

I have always be proud to be a member of the Caravan Club and can no justified reason for these changes.

I suspect the "since 1907" tag line was included in an attempt to appease those looking through their rose tinted eyewear

"since 2017" would without doubt be a better option, those dwelling on the past will always have their memories

An awful lot of posts in this thread should conclude with the words "Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells".

The video does not, in my opinion, show the thinking behind the new logo. It shows the logo, yes, and how it can be portrayed umpteen different ways. It does not give us the thought processes and rationale that led up to choosing it. Surely the old one could have been modernised to keep some of the heritage? Reminds me of a similar exercise at work when a childish design was chosen from an entry of 2. At least that cost nothing. Apart from the re-branding of everything.

Apparently management gave members no notice as they did not wish to spoil the surprise.

Yeah right!!
