What people are saying about our HealthCheck
Peter QuintanaDirector, hgkc
The risk profile generated by the SenseRisk insurance HealthCheck is a simple and easy way to start exploring the insurances you might need for your business, and a great place to start the conversation with a SenseRisk Advisor.
Emma BayleyBayley HR Associates
I found the HealthCheck Platform a great tool to use when looking to understand what risks my business my face and what insurances to consider, it was very informative.
As business owners we don’t always think of the bigger and wider picture of what is maybe required when setting up company/employer insurance.
Greg DodimeadOwner, Brand Affiniti
I thought the HealthCheck Platform was very helpful and it confirmed that I have the right level of cover in place with SenseRisk already; It also recommended others I may need in future.
The HealthCheck was user friendly and got me to consider scenarios of future growth within my business and the potential risks they could pose and the right level of cover to deal with those changes.
Rose Sellman-LeavaDirector and Co-founder, Inclusive Futures CIC
Sense Risk and their HealthCheck platform have been incredibly useful to us and our new business. The platform breaks down everything you might want to think about when looking at insurance in a really simple way. As a new business owner, you have to wear so many hats, and so it’s helpful when you can pass something as important as insurance over to the experts! The Sense Risk team are then on hand to support the whole insurance process in a really friendly and jargon-free way. I literally wouldn’t do insurance any other way!
