A spate of dog-nappings in London has sparked calls for greater pet insurance cover products.

Sainsbury's Bank has called on pet insurers to provide a minimum £250 reward for the return of lost or stolen dogs.

Sainsburys said only half of insurers offer the incentive.

It said it would like to see insurers offering up to £1,000 towards the advertising costs for a lost dog or cat and up to £750 if the pet is lost or stolen and not returned.

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.
