John Uings' motorcycle insurance brokers Bennetts led the way on National Ride To Work Day recently, which called for people to commute by motorcycle.

John often rides to work on his 550cc Yamaha Virago, having rekindled his teenage love-affair with motorbikes after more than 30 years out of the saddle.

He said: "If more people took the opportunity to come to work by bike, then the morning battle on the roads would no longer be a problem."


The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
