As a local insurance broker, rated ‘Excellent’ across over 50,000 reviews, not only do Howden focus on understanding clients and the specifics of their insurance needs, saving clients £375* on home and car insurance, but the team prides itself on acting as a force for good, supporting local people and the Poole community.
Alec Alexander, Branch Manager at Howden Poole said: “To be named the Broker of the Decade is a real privilege and we are absolutely thrilled to have won. As we continue to evolve to meet our clients’ needs, we understand that knowing your local Poole broker is ready when you need us, however you need us, matters.
“Whether that’s the little things, from enjoying a cup of tea in branch while we sort your cover, to stepping up when disaster strikes, helping arrange whatever emergency accommodation, transport, or support you may need.
“Our focus is not simply being ‘on the high-street’ but ‘in the high-street’; that is being embedded in the community, whether through charity work, local recruitment and career development, or helping other local businesses thrive. By giving back to our clients and the causes that matter to them, we can help communities to grow and flourish.”
While there are many ways to measure success in business, Howden’s people-first ethos means that caring for clients and the local community is paramount. Here in Poole, that includes sponsoring local sports teams, fundraising for charities, organising donation stations, and shining a spotlight on independent businesses.
