Congratulations to us!
As I said at the time, it was nice for all our hard work to be acknowledged with a nomination in the annual CAT magazine awards. Even better to return to the new year and discover that we'd won it!
It's been difficult keeping it under my hat for the last few days, but following a trip to the Aftermarket Show at the NEC yesterday where the awards ceremony was held, it's time to tell all that our collective efforts in introducing the service and repair code have been acknowledged.
For me, this award is about what all the people involved in the code have achieved, the 5,000 or so garages that are subscribing to it and the team that has created and now operates it.
For me it's a significant moment as it is an initial confirmation of what I have suspected for a long time - we can do this. Self regulation is about a sector acting as a community and demonstrating that we are able and willing to get involved and 'do the right thing'.
Seems like a large number of CAT magazine readers support me in that and voted - so well done and thank you.
If you want to continue the promotion of our achievement, you can download the press release via the link below and send it far and wide! We are currently doing so, not only within the usual media circles but also to government, the consumer lobby, advisory services etc - it's all excellent promotion of what we are achieving with the code. Your local papers may be interested, give it a go!

A couple more pictures? oh, alright then!
Well done all - an excellent way to begin 2009!
All the best
