Caravan clubs
There are numerous caravan clubs in the UK, as well as those based in Europe and elsewhere around the world.
The Camping and Caravanning Club is one of the largest and best-known organisations in Britain.
Caravan owners and those who go on touring holidays can find a wealth of information, from tips and advice about caravan maintenance to destination suggestions and specialised services.
You may find that local branches of the club are an excellent way to meet fellow caravanning enthusiasts and learn more about touring.
Associations with insurers also mean that you may be able to find a better deal on your premiums if you are a member of one of these caravanning clubs.
Club Care Insurance has been created for Club members and are tailored to meet the specific caravanning needs of those enjoying the outdoor leisure lifestyle.

All about the Camping and Caravanning Club
As the oldest such organisation in Britain, the Camping and Caravanning Club is a popular choice for many people.
Established in 1901, it evolved into the club it is today. Famous explorer Sir Robert Falcon-Scott even held the post of president for three years from 1909 until his death in 1912.
Now the organisation boasts more than 500,000 members and has a network of caravan parks and campsites around the UK, most of which are run on a franchise basis.
Sir David Bellamy is the current club president and he has been involved in the promotion of a range of environmental and conservation initiatives.
Annual membership costs just £39 and as a not-for-profit establishment, all the money generated is put back into maintaining and updating facilities.
