Hello,

We were away for the weekend when we learnt of this devastating news and my first thoughts were I prayed nobody had been hurt and that any damage to their premises was minimal. Fortunately, nobody was hurt but sadly, the damage has been extensive! I do not know the exact extent of the damage incurred but when I spoke to Dean's lovely wife on the phone yesterday, she was distraught and close to tears but I gather the workshop has been completed destroyed in the fire! Dean's exact words to me in a text were that "10 years of hard work and memories have gone up in flames!"

I am heartbroken for this lovely family and all of the team at Camper UK as they have indeed all worked so very hard to build their business to what it is today! They are a genuine family run concern, who truly do genuinely care about their customers. They offer so much more than just selling someone a motorhome or caravan! So much so, that many of their happy customers end up seeing the Camper UK team not just as their motorhome dealers but also as good friends too!

However, I always try to look on the bright side of life and I believe that Camper UK will soon pick themselves up and be back on track again! I think they will be amazed by all the support and loyalty they will receive from their customers both old and new and despite this terrible turn of events, they will become better and stronger as a result!

I will keep you all posted of any news or information but in the meantime, I've copied and pasted this announcement from Camper UK's Facebook page:

"It is with great regret that we have to inform all of our valued customers and followers of a serious fire at our Station Road facility. We would like to thank people for their support and messages of condolence. Please bear with us during this difficult time and full details will follow as they become available."
