Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom marches on

Visiting Markhams Garage for the latest campaign stop

Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom marches on

Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom campaign, which puts the spotlight on apprenticeships and career possibilities in the aftermarket, has recently completed filming a brand new episode with Simon Powney at Markhams Garage near Leominster in the Herefordshire Marches.

While Simon has featured in previous Schaeffler videos, including the first episode of Wrenches & Wisdom, and also taken part in an interview for Schaeffler’s REPXPERT Conference video series last year, Simon was so inspired by Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom initiative that he hired two apprentices to join his garage!

The most recent Wrenches & Wisdom video follows these two apprentices as they learn the ropes of the industry and discuss why they wanted to get into the automotive aftermarket. Simon Powney also makes an appearance to discuss why he hired them and how he believes apprentices can help the industry prosper.

Based near Leominster in Herefordshire, Markhams Garage has been trading for nearly 100 years and now boasts a team of eight vehicle technicians.

This new episode is live now and can be viewed on Schaeffler’s REPXPERT UK social media channels or here.

The campaign will continue throughout 2025, visiting a host of garages, speaking to garage owners, apprentices and technicians to promote the need for ongoing workshop training programme, and also to discuss the currently underused opportunities arising from employing an apprentice to bolster your business.

Schaeffler encourages aftermarket professionals to stay updated with its latest news by regularly checking the REPXPERT app, or by visiting the website at: www.repxpert.co.uk.
