FirstAssist, the healthcare management buyout from Royal & SunAlliance, is to set up a nationwide network of physiotherapists.
The network has been formed through a deal with health services firm, Sona.
Sona currently provides a range of fitness services through its 24 physiotherapy centres around the UK.
Sona also plans to open a further 16 sites by the spring of 2004.
FirstAssist managing director Steve Wood said: "This is an exciting area for us, as the demand for physiotherapy continues to grow. FirstAssist clients will all benefit from this initiative, which includes a UK network of over 300 accredited physiotherapists, in addition to Sona's facilities. Localised pricing, quality assurance and a consistent level of service for all employees make a huge difference to the proposition we can take to our clients."
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.
