Company Profile
Skills Coaches is a family business, founded in 1919 by Arthur Skill, grandfather of the current Managing Director,
Nigel Skill and Financial Director, Simon Skill.
The business has grown from the early days of transporting miners to work at the local colliery in an ex War Department
ambulance, to our current fleet of luxury coaches which travel the UK and continent delivering our large range of exciting
holidays.
As our friendly and knowledgeable Driver Couriers take care of the driving, our passengers can relax and watch the world
go by, knowing that they are in the safe hands of a family company with over 90 years of expertise and experience, dedicated
to caring for all our passengers’ individual needs.
