The practice of providing advice and guidance to help people protect the things that matter has a certain professional satisfaction, but it is safe to say that insurance is rarely described by those buying it as exciting – even when the asset is a special motor car.
Nevertheless, many of our clients appreciate the benefits of insuring through Lockton, just as they value the personal service delivered by our team. We know this because they tell us when we see them at the various events we attend throughout the year.
From the concours lawn to the pitlane, at a motoring hangout or on the lawn of a stately home, we absolutely love getting out to meet our customers, both existing and new. It gives us a chance to understand what makes them tick, what they like and, occasionally, what they don't.
This enables us to constantly review what we do and how do it, and to never become complacent. It also helps us understand how the UK's enthusiast car sector is constantly evolving, becoming an ever more vibrant and exciting place.
Cars and coffee, concours d 'elegance, track days, historic motor racing, classic car shows, supercar events – the list goes on. You'll find the Lockton Performance team getting to as many as we can. Even the great British weather doesn't dampen the enthusiasm of either our clients or our team!
Car culture is stronger than ever across the entire spectrum and there is rarely a day, let alone a weekend, where there isn't something taking place that involves motoring enthusiasts assembling to celebrate their love of all things with wheels.
It's also refreshing and heartening to see that this passion is being shared with the next generation of car lovers. Seeing many people bringing their families to share in the excitement always makes us smile.
You may think that, for some of us at Lockton, all we do is head out and about enjoying ourselves. But, with a few exceptions, most of the events we attend, sponsor or exhibit at are held at weekends. We do it because we genuinely enjoy doing it and it means that we remain available to clients at all times.
You can catch up with the events we attend by following us on Instagram @lockton_performance, and through LinkedIn or Facebook. But why not come to one of the many events we attend and meet the team in person? We'd love to see you!
