WNS Assistance has held its inaugural gala awards night to recognise the achievements of the 40 top bodyshops in its approved repairer network.

The repairers were all gold standard centres, which achieve WNS’s top ranking through customer satisfaction standards, cost control and volume capacity.

The top three bodyshops were Premier Panel Skills of Aldershot, Highdown Coachworks of Lancing and Perdal Body Repair Centre of Cramlington.
