Sam Kendal-Hyde, head of Bupa's Healthline, the 24-hour nursing helpline, was no shrinking violet when she took part in Loud Tie Day recently in aid of the charity Beating Bowel Cancer.
The day aims to raise awareness of bowel cancer, a disease that kills more than 17,000 people in the UK every year, and to raise money towards better diagnosis of the disease.
Bupa's survey finds two-thirds of the UK population are unaware of the scale of the problem. Of those who felt able to talk to their doctor about bowel cancer symptoms, almost half found it an embarrassing subject to discuss.
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.
