The 2018 British Bodyshop Awards take place tonight and five Nationwide body shops are nominated in various categories being presented this evening.
This prestigious industry event hosted by the ABP Club is an evening for the UK body repair industry to come together and to celebrate the great work over the past 12 months. As the awarding companies announce their finalist, Nationwide are delighted that five of their body shops have been named as nominees in three categories.
The hard work of these Nationwide teams is being recognised by customers in the below categories:
AXA Insurance: Bodyshop of the Year
- Nationwide, Gateshead
Direct Line Insurance Group: Speedy Repairer Award
- Nationwide JCC, Grantham
LV= Insurance: Best Loved Network Partner Bodyshop
- Nationwide Gladwins, Kings Lynn
- Nationwide Gladwins, Norwich
- Nationwide Howard Basford, Trafford Park
These nominations highlight two of Nationwide’s values – ‘We put our customers first’ and that ‘We always look for continuous Improvements’ and we are hoping that the hard work of their teams results in being named winners of the respective awards on the evening.
The evening is an opportunity for the industry to recognise and celebrate success and Nationwide Network Services will also be presenting two awards. Network Services, a part of the complete vehicle repair solution Nationwide boasts, will be presenting awards to their approved network in both the north and south of the country.
The nominations for these awards are:
Nationwide Network Services: Bodyshop of the Year from the Approved Network – North
- Autocraft Accident Repair Centre, Aberystwyth
- Fastrack ARC, Kidderminster
- North of England Coachworks, Newcastle
Nationwide Network Services: Bodyshop of the year from the Approved Network – South
- Accident Repair Centre, Letchworth
- ARC Coachworks, Ashford
- Palace Panels, Croydon
A record number of industry professionals attending the event at Battersea Evolution, London will be able to enjoy the ever-popular dodgem cars that Nationwide will, again this year, be sponsoring. In previous years the dodgems have been considered a highlight of the evening, with many guest photos being shared online.
