Not many cartoon characters have championed the insurance industry.

But Backchat would like to take this opportunity to highlight the lifetime achievements of one famous canine and his intrepid chums who are the industry's unsung heroes.

Scooby-Doo, soon to be immortalised on the big screen, and "those pesky kids" have stopped approximately seven major insurance frauds involving major commercial risks such as a fun park, an old goldmine and various hotels.

A leading loss adjuster told Backchat: "They've saved us lots of time and money over the years. That ghost ruse was a tricky one."

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.
