The National Motor Museum Trust

Historic material was gathered for many years at The Caravan Club headquarters. In 2006 this Collection was transferred to the National Motor Museum’s Collections Centre. Since this time a Curator and a team of volunteers have been working to improve access and preservation. This work has led to numerous displays, exhibitions, publications and educational workshops which have showcased the Collection.

The Caravan Club Collection dates from the birth of leisure touring caravans in 1885 through to its Centenary Celebrations in 2007 and beyond. Material includes a variety of memorabilia, publications, photographs, film footage and sound recordings reflecting the history of its services and members.
