Gemini Accident Repair Centres Donates Rally Vehicles to EMTEC College to Support Student Training

Gemini Accident Repair Centres is proud to announce the donation of 15 rally vehicles from previous AutoRaise charity rallies to EMTEC College in Nottingham. These vehicles will serve as valuable training resources for current and future students, allowing them hands-on experience in various areas including vehicle stripping, mechanical work, panel beating, and paint training.

This donation is part of Gemini’s ongoing commitment to supporting the next generation of skilled workers in the vehicle repair industry. By providing these vehicles, Gemini hopes to enhance the practical learning experience for EMTEC students, helping them gain critical skills that will benefit their studies and future careers.

Dave Sargeant, Managing Director of Gemini Accident Repair Centres and Chairman of AutoRaise, expressed his enthusiasm for the initiative, commenting:

“I am delighted to see these vehicles going to such a deserving partner. EMTEC College will undoubtedly benefit from the practical training opportunities these cars provide. There are currently no plans for an AutoRaise rally, so the fact the vehicles will remain in the industry, supporting apprenticeships and addressing the skills shortage, is great. It’s essential for the industry to continue backing apprenticeship programmes, and I’m proud that Gemini is leading by example. I hope this donation inspires other organisations to contribute in similar ways.”

The AutoRaise charity rally, initially the Real Rally, created by the late Bob Linwood, has been a significant fundraiser for the AutoRaise charity, which focuses on promoting apprenticeships and addressing the skills gap in the Accident Repair sector. The donation of these vehicles ensures that the legacy of the rally continues by directly benefiting the future of the industry.
