Lloyd's found itself footing a large chunk of the bill when Katherine Harries completed a two-month walk from John O'Groats to Land's End.

The world-renowned opera singer was trekking across the UK in aid of Speakability, a charity devoted to helping people overcome the effects of the communicative disorder aphasia.

Lloyd's had sponsored Harries £80,000 to complete the challenge.

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.
