Ladbrook Insurance

Founded the company at the start of the millennium having worked with Voluntary Sector Organisations since 1994. Qualified and registered as an Independent Insurance Broker, Martin devotes 99% of his time to the Voluntary Sector. Having developed the company with Marie Hallowes, over the years Martin now spends more time giving talks and seminars to voluntary groups both small and large, who wish to understand the types of insurance cover available as well as whether or not they are needed. Martin says "Specialist independent advice should be available to all organisations, be wary of information received directly from insurance companies."

Marie joined Martin Ladbrook on 7 February 2000, and assisted him with the start-up of the company, creating many of the systems and processes used by the company on a day-to-day basis. She has played a key role in the development of the company and in its growth over the years.
