About
Bruford & Vallance Insurance Services Limited is a family owned business founded in 1978.
All our advisors are Chartered Insurance Institute qualified, with each specialising in various areas of insurance.
Our aim is that every client has one person as their first point of contact with another as reserve, both having a good working knowledge of the client and their insurance circumstances and requirements. Under this system we can build a personal relationship with each client and they in turn do not have to quote policy numbers or waste their time while someone unfamiliar with their policy deals with a new requirement or query.
