A charity auction prize with a difference gave AXA’s Andrew the chance to step behind the scenes at Autoglass® and discover just what it takes to do the job of one of our technicians.
When Andrew won the opportunity to feature in an Autoglass® TikTok video through an AXA charity auction, we wanted to make sure his prize was one to remember.
Rather than simply putting him in front of the camera, we invited Andrew to get hands-on and experience some of the skills our technicians use every day.
Working alongside our technicians and trainers, Andrew took on a series of practical challenges designed to put his precision, technique and knowledge to the test. From lifting a windscreen and safely removing glass to getting to grips with the glue gun, he was given a behind-the-scenes look at the expertise that goes into delivering a safe, high-quality vehicle glass service.
And it wasn’t just his practical skills that were tested. Andrew also faced our very own Glasstermind quiz, giving him the chance to prove how much he’d learnt along the way.
More skill than meets the eye
For Andrew, the experience offered a different perspective on the work our technicians carry out every day – and quickly demonstrated that there’s much more to the role than it might appear.
Vehicle glass repair and replacement requires specialist training, technical knowledge, precision and a steady hand, with every stage playing an important role in getting drivers safely back on the road.
The challenges gave Andrew the opportunity to experience some of that first-hand, with plenty of guidance from the Autoglass® team – and a few laughs along the way.
Supporting our partners beyond the day-to-day
We’re proud to have supported AXA’s fundraising efforts and to have turned the auction prize into an experience that showcased the people and expertise behind Autoglass®.
Strong partnerships are about more than the services we deliver together. Opportunities like this allow us to support the causes that matter to our partners, strengthen relationships and give people a different insight into our business.
So, does Andrew have what it takes to become a Glasstermind champion?
Follow the series on Autoglass UK on TikTok to see how he gets on with each challenge.
