Well done to Richard Doidge (right) from the Dordogne in France and Keith Mitchell from Surrey who won 1st and 2nd place in the Van of the Year competition.
They claimed £300 and £150 respectively along with their unique engraved tankards at the recent Sweep Stuff trade exhibition. It was a difficult choice but Richard’s van had the edge, despite being left hand drive!
Well done to both. We look forward to welcoming all your vans in 2026. Thanks to last year’s winner Dave Ricketts for his assistance with the judging.
The competition runs every year and is open to any sweep. View / download photos from this year’s competition / exhibition here:
