About Health Insurance Brokers
Independent Health Insurance Broker in Hull with Over 35 Years’ Experience
When it comes to something as important as your health — or the health of your employees — I truly believe you deserve specialist advice from someone who understands the industry inside out.
If you owned a Rolls-Royce, you wouldn’t take it to a back-street garage and hope for the best. You’d go to a specialist who knows that model intimately and has the right tools and experience to look after it properly.
That’s exactly how I approach private medical insurance and employee benefits.
I don’t dabble. I specialise.
Why I Do What I Do
I started working in the employee benefits sector back in February 1988, and over the decades I’ve seen every side of this industry.
I spent 17 years working for a health cash plan provider, before being invited to become a specialist broker for a company that had previously been my client. During that time, I played an integral role in growing their private medical insurance portfolio from around £250,000 to approximately £2.5 million in annual premium income.
That business was later acquired by a much larger organisation, and while growth was impressive, the personal touch was lost. That experience shaped my values and confirmed what matters most to me — relationships, trust, and genuinely understanding the people I work with.
I later worked directly with insurers, which gave me invaluable insight into how policies are designed, priced, and managed behind the scenes. That knowledge allows me to challenge insurers when needed and make sure my clients are treated fairly.
Today, I’m delighted to be back doing what I love most — broking, advising, and supporting clients properly.
Independent Advice, Tailored to You
As an independent health insurance broker based in Hull, I have access to the whole of the market, including several niche providers that many brokers don’t work with.
That means I can:
-
Compare policies objectively
-
Match cover to your exact needs and budget
-
Identify value (not just the cheapest option)
-
Negotiate premiums where possible
-
Handle renewals with minimal disruption
Even if you already have a policy in place, I can often review it, apply market feedback, and help secure better terms or pricing — without you having to switch insurers unnecessarily.
Most importantly, my service is completely free. I’m paid by insurers, not by you, so my advice costs you nothing.
More Than Just Policies
I’ve seen first-hand how delayed treatment can affect every part of someone’s life — physically, emotionally, and professionally. That’s why I believe there has never been a more important time to support the NHS by using the private sector for non-urgent treatment, where appropriate.
One of the things my clients value most is that I genuinely care. I don’t just sell policies and disappear. I’m here when questions arise, when things don’t feel clear, and when reassurance is needed.
I promise:
-
No jargon
-
No pressure
-
No sales scripts
-
Just honest, friendly, expert advice
A Bit More About Me
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our several much-loved dogs.
I’m also a part-time canine psychologist and run a small local business called Doggy Dilemmas, as well as having written a book about my experiences working with dogs.
Helping people — whether through my professional work or otherwise — is very much at the heart of what I do.
