Welcome to the website of the South West Region of The Caravan Club

Thank you coming to our Website. I hope you find it interesting and informative.

The Caravan Club Limited has 10 Regions nationally and the South West Region is one of the largest. We have ten local Centres throughout our area.

The most northerly being Gloucestershire, with Avon covering the Bristol area. Devon & Cornwall is the most westerly and we travel east through Somerset to West Dorset, East Dorset, Wiltshire, West Hampshire into East Hampshire, our most easterly point, while across the Solent to the south is our small neighbour, the Isle of Wight. 

It is on this website and also that of the Caravan Club itself. The Centres give you the opportunity of being close at hand to what's on and enjoying the local events as well as the activities organised by the Centre themselves.

During 2010 the Regional Council is running the following events for the benefit of all Club Members.
Firstly – a Meet the Council Members and Club Officials at the Club's Moreton-in-Marsh site is taking place on Saturday April 24th. All members are welcome to this event.
Secondly – A 'Members Question Time' at Exeter Racecourse. Saturday September 11th is the date and again, all are welcome. Entry is by pre-issued tickets due to catering restrictions. A rally on the Club site is available and being organised by the Avon Centre.

Finally – The South West Region AGM takes place at Cobham Sports & Social Club, Ashington, Wimborne on Saturday November 13th. with a rally next door at Merley Court, organised by the West Hampshire Centre.

You may wonder about the reason for the Regions existence; what it does, who are its members and what is its function? The Constitution set up by the Caravan Club states that the objects of the Region shall be:-

1.To represent general matters of Club or Centre interest to the Club Council.
2.To provide a means whereby the Caravan Club interests of those Members living in the area may be fostered.
3.To provide a forum to discuss and solve local problems at Regional level.

The affairs and activities of the Region shall be controlled and managed by a Regional Council comprising:-

1. Chairman, Vice-chairman, Hon. Secretary, and Hon. Treasurer. They are elected annually at the Annual General Meeting of the Region.
2. Two Delegates appointed by the Committee of each Centre within the Region. 3. Up to three co-opted Members, being current Club Members not registered with any Centre and deemed suitable by the Club Executive Committee.

You may wonder about the reason for the Regions existence; what it does, who are its members and what is its function? The Constitution set up by the Caravan Club states that the objects of the Region shall be:-

The Council meet regularly throughout the year with Members of the Executive Committee and Nominated Members living in the area in attendance. The Annual General Meeting is usually held in November and is open to all Members of the Caravan Club. The Region appoints the two Nominated Representatives who represent the Region at the Club Council.
