The Bodyshop Hub at Bodyshop Magazine LIVE 2026 on Thursday, 15 October will see the return of our popular KnowledgeXchange – the accident repair sector advice surgery for UK bodyshops.
This is a completely free service and is designed to help solve some of the most-pressing issues repairers are facing within their businesses today.
We asked UK repairers what topics they need help with this year, so we are expanding the KnowledgeXchange to include two additional specialist areas, as we bring together seven industry experts to answer your questions on business operations, energy cost savings and sustainability, estimating, HR and employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and apprenticeships, as well as debt recovery and legal.
If you have a specific issue about which you want some honest and confidential advice, then sign up below and we’ll be in touch to arrange a time for you to meet one of the experts, who will be available from 10:30am to 2:30pm in our special KnowledgeXchange area.
Individual sessions last for up to 30 minutes and, should you need more time, you can arrange a follow-up call or in-person meeting with the individual expert.
