By way of example, research by The National Caravan Council suggests that emissions for a 1,000+ mile journey from London to the North of Scotland with a family of four in a small saloon car towing an appropriate caravan produces only 38% (0.36 tonnes) of the C0² output of a similar distanced flight, which would produce emissions of nearly a ton (0.96 tonnes).

In order to sustain our industry going forward, it is important that we work in harmony with nature to ensure that it can continue to be enjoyed by future generations

At Bailey, we remain committed to playing our part in this process by reducing the environmental footprint of our operations and striving to make our leisure vehicle products as sustainable as possible.

Over recent years we have undertaken a range of initiatives designed to reduce our impact on the environment, covering our products, our sites and our culture.

In 2022 Bailey signed up to the Woodland Trust Woodland Carbon Scheme to help reduce the environmental impact of our operations and at the same time boost biodiversity through the planting of trees. Consequently, when customers now purchase a new Bailey caravan, motorhomes or campervan, we are planting trees to offset the carbon emissions generated when we manufacture them.
