PB Events: Horses and courses make a great day
Kempton Park saw plenty of action on and off the course at this year's Insurance Race Day.
The annual Insurance Race Day took place on 20 April at Kempton Park in spectacular sunshine. Insurance experts from across the country gathered for a three course lunch and a day of networking with great access to the course.
All sectors of the profession joined Professional Broking, along with sister publications Insurance Age, Post and Reinsurance, for a day of contact making and entertainment.
Guests were greeted with a champagne reception where both race and business tips were shared.
A three-course lunch, sponsored by ISO, was then served in the venue's stunning panoramic restaurant, which provided a superb view of the races. The programme included races sponsored by IGI Insurance, Arag Legal Services, Aspray, Groupama Insurances and SSP.
The Insurance Race Day raffle raised £1,040 for its nominated charity, The Children's Trust, which provides care, education and therapy to children with multiple disabilities.
