Professional Car Servicing, MOT, Servicing & Repairs in Woolwich

Looking for a reliable car service in South East London?
SMaRT® Garage Services offers professional MOT, vehicle servicing and expert repairs for petrol, diesel and hybrid vehicles.

Our qualified mechanics serve private drivers, local businesses and fleet customers from our fully equipped garage in Woolwich, South East London, where we’ve been serving the local community since 2011.

Here’s what makes SMaRT different

We employ people who are rebuilding their lives, whether they’re recovering from a difficult period, dealing with mental health challenges, or simply haven’t had a fair shot at work due to systemic inequalities or disability.

All our workforce learns and trains alongside fully qualified mechanics, whose support and guidance helps them gain a better understanding of vehicle mechanics. Following the completion of a structured programme, our trainees pick up real qualifications, and many of them go on to apprenticeships or full-time employment in the automotive sector.

We partner up with local businesses to provide work trials to our workforce with the hope they can move into an apprenticeship and then full-time employment.

It’s a model that works, and there’s even a name for it: a social enterprise.

What is a social enterprise, and how does SMaRT fit into it?

A social enterprise in the UK is a business that trades for a social or environmental purpose rather than to maximize profit for shareholders.

In other words, it could be a business with real customers, but the profits go towards addressing problems, such as:

  • Rescuing surplus supermarket food to feed low-income families and reduce emissions,
  • Training adults facing employment barriers to help them secure permanent jobs,
  • Refurbishing corporate e-waste into free laptops to bridge the digital divide.


SMaRT Garage Services reinvests its profits to supplement workforce training and fund industry certifications – credentials that are normally out of reach for those facing employment barriers, who cannot afford independent training.

In short – Our garage is part of a movement for fair work, second chances and ethical business. Your booking directly supports local people to learn, train and rebuild their confidence to help them re-enter employment, become an apprentice or go to college!

Did you know?

Some of our former workforce have gone on to apprenticeships and jobs in auto retailers like Halfords, automotive colleges and even paid jobs at SMaRT.
