What our clients say about us:
Fundraising In the current climate, fundraising is an important factor for many charities. Our charity policies automatically include cover for fundraising events under the Public Liability coverage with the maximum attendees set at 500 at any one event (subject to risk assessments). If you require additional event cover we can help and can even arrange specialist event insurance for hazardous activities as they are normally excluded from a standard charity policy. Social Enterprises Social enterprises are started for a variety of reasons, whether it is solving a social problem, serving a community, or protecting the environment. Many start-ups rightly focus their energies on their cause but can be uncertain when it comes to identifying any associated insurance risks. We understand this sector and maintain a high focus on prioritising the needs of your organisation. We will always aim to find the right insurance policy to fit your needs, taking budget and your bespoke requirements into consideration. New Start Charities Starting up a new charity can be daunting; understanding which insurance covers you need can be confusing. Do you need Employers Liability cover? Should you have Professional/Trustee Indemnity? We will help you to understand the risks you might face and will advise you on the cover you will need to protect you and your organisation. Contact one of our Charity Insurance team for further information on the services we offer charities and organisations working in the 3rd Sector.

Vivienne Wiggins Beacon House Ministries “It has been a pleasure working with Scrutton Bland this year. As well as working hard to find us the ideal insurance for our specialist area of work with the homeless in Colchester, they went the extra mile and sent a team in to decorate our CafePlus area. We feel that this is a good partnership, and they are doing as much as they can to help us use our money and resources wisely.” Ashfaq Siddaq Barking Muslim Association “It is really important to us that we have the correct cover in place to protect all of the stakeholders within the association. Barry at Scrutton Bland has taken the time to get to know us and used his knowledge of our sector to give us complete peace of mind.” Claire Staddon Operations Manager Emmaus Ipswich “As a fledgling charity, organising our insurance was a daunting task. The friendly and supportive approach by Barry made the whole process straightforward and easy to understand. As we evolve the business they respond to our needs quickly, enabling us to move forward with confidence. We feel that our needs have been understood and supported.”
“We took the decision to switch our insurance because we were
dissatisfied with the service from the previous company that we dealt with who were, for example, very slow in responding to queries, often seemed impersonal etc. Our experience with Shirley Greer and her colleagues at Scrutton Bland have fully justified our decision to look elsewhere. From them we have always received a prompt, efficient, personal & friendly service. All that and we saved on our premium too!” Choice Support “Choice Support financial standing instructions are such that we have to retender for major costs every three years for cost effectiveness. Scrutton Bland put in a very impressive and successful bid several years ago. Since then, they have been very proactive and conscience of our business needs. The team, especially Shirley, who we deal with on a regular basis, is very professional and they react very quickly to our needs. Scrutton Bland provides us with regular information including updates. It is nice and refreshing to work with an organisation that understands our business needs and the environment we work in.”
