Our awning - a Royal Traveller 2 from JustKampers, blew away in strong winds (yes...I know)and 2 leg poles have bent and the metal soldered joints have split. Does anyone have any idea where to get these fixed? It cost £220 so I am loathe to discard it. Not sure what sort of metal it is.

Depending on the metal used, bent poles are near impossible to straighten out.

Have you considered contacting Royal Leisure for advice?

Trt Royal direct as a start, if they can't help they will probably be able to point you in the direction of a stockist. If thats a no goer, try your local camping shop. The canopy on my tent got damaged by wind and my local shop although didn't replace the poles like for like they sorted through their odds and sods of poles & managed to get enough to fix the canopy.

Good Luck
