A Seaton Carew man has managed to turn his passion for caravans into a career path after founding his own business.
Ronnie McKeith set up the Caravan Medic from home and aims to help owners by providing repair, servicing and bodywork facilities for their mobile holiday homes, the Peterlee Mail revealed.
The 53-year-old told the newspaper that he has always had a fascination with caravans and got the idea after spending years looking after his own.
Redundancies at his former workplace prompted Mr McKeith to set up the business after taking a few classes to improve his skills.
He explained that while business has been good, it is starting to slow up for Christmas. However, he expects it to be “bouncing again” come February or March as people look to get their caravans in order for the holiday period.
