Bridge Insurance Brokers Limited

Bridge is one of the UK’s top 100 brokers – it’s official. We are delighted to be included in the official list of the top 100 UK Brokers of 2024. The list is compiled every year by leading industry magazine Insurance Age and is seen as an essential guide to the top brokers in the commercial and personal insurance space.   Using market analyst Insuramore, the list organises insurance brokers according to their UK general insurance revenue. As the editor of the magazine points out, the list paints an encouraging picture for the whole profession as 42 previously listed firms are upwardly mobile, jumping at least one banding in 2024, and only 10 have gone backwards, showing a market that appears in relatively rude health. It's certainly been a busy 12 months for us here at Bridge and with team expansions, new business wins, great relationships with existing clients, and exciting growth plans, we expect to be in the list again in 2025. For more information, the full article and list is below.

We are delighted to announce that Bridge Insurance Brokers Ltd is joining UK Homes Network as its official insurance partner for the next 12 months. UK Homes Network is the first social media platform dedicated exclusively to the property industry, launched this year by brothers Chris and David Tremlett. Designed for property developers, investors, and agents, it offers members a unique opportunity to connect, explore new land and property deals, and build their personal brand through an app and web-based platform. Unlike traditional social media, UK Homes Network prioritises member exposure without the clutter of algorithms or spam messages. It’s a streamlined space where professionals can exchange recommendations, industry insights, and network without distraction. Co-Founder Chris Tremlett shared his excitement about their recent partnership with Bridge Insurance Brokers, stating: “We’re incredibly excited to partner with Bridge Insurance Brokers, a respected name in the industry. At UK Homes Network, our goal is to offer the best tools and resources for our members, and this collaboration is a key step in that direction. Bridge Insurance Brokers will be providing valuable content and educational pieces that will equip our members with essential knowledge on navigating property insurance. We’re confident this partnership will have a positive impact on our community.” Andre Backner, Sales & Marketing Director at Bridge, sees the partnership as a natural fit, saying: “For over 50 years Bridge has been connecting clients with the best insurance solutions for their precise needs. Our reputation has been built on expertise, experience, professionalism and in ensuring we put our clients first. Particularly in the UK’s property industry, where we can support clients’ insurance needs throughout the development cycle. That’s why we’re delighted to be the insurance partner of the UK Homes Network and excited to be a part of this growing community.” This partnership marks another milestone in UK Homes Network’s mission to empower property professionals with meaningful connections and trusted resources and is a fantastic opportunity for Bridge to build on our existing networks.
