The next whitegoods meeting has been scheduled for February 29th 2008 to be held at the Millers Hotel in Sibson once more. Of course the meeting is open to non-members as well as members to attend and entrance is free, so you can attend easily.

We are looking forward to some new product introductions, news on what the TA has been up to over the past few months and how it is progressing forward. We will have some update on taking the COP forward and working with the OFT to improve standards as well as updates on technical information and what we are doing about it.

As usual we expect it to be a very interesting day for all who attend.

As reported some time ago the trade association held its first official meeting at The Millers in Sibson n the 28th September this year.

Whilst, as usual, for these events there was a large element of social activity in the evening  there was also some very serious discussion on the aims, aspirations and purpose of the Whitegoods Trade Association as we move forward. The elected group were of course massively enthusiastic and continue to drive the agenda of the WTA forward on a daily basis with ideas and strategies available in abundance in the effort to help the independents.

At the recent meeting in Sibson the initial council to run the organisation was formed and it was agreed to leave the Advisory Council, which regulates the repairs@ system (used to fi nd a local engineer to repair appliance
