Founded in 1933, Caravan is Britain's first magazine devoted solely to the needs of touring caravanners and celebrated its 70th birthday last year. Now brighter and more informative than ever, the magazine is proving essential reading for those who are new to caravanning, plus it also has a strong following among seasoned caravanners.

Facilities for caravanners at Britain's motorway service stations can be terrible, with poor use of signs and nowhere to park your outfit. So, we're starting a campaign to name and shame the worst offenders, in the hope of improving facilities for all caravanners.
