We recently had two of our new engineers carry out a trailer maintenance training course with Towing Solutions, feedback from my engineers was it was very professional, full of great information, well set up and good spectrum of course subject delivered by a great team 🙂
I will most certainly be sending my guys there for additional training in the future, a big thank you from Pete at Welfare Hire Huntingdon 🙂
