Specialist park and holiday home insurance broker, Parksure, reported enjoying another successful year at the annual Stoneleigh Show this June. Parksure’s director Matt Cass, who was at the show every day with one of his colleagues, said: ‘We had a great time at Stoneleigh and saw many old faces, many existing clients and parks we cover. We even made some new friends.

‘People loved our free on-stand cupcakes again (see picture below) and were impressed by the new pens we were giving out, too. We gave out loads of quotes and some show attendees have already taken out policies with us.

‘We also received quite a few enquiries about our new boiler breakdown cover, which is now covered automatically under our park home/mobile home cover, as well as our cover limits of £400,000 on the mobile homes and holiday lodges, and our new cover limits of £250,000 on the static caravans.

‘Finally, we had a few enquiries about the FlameSure stand-alone boiler cover, too. We also offer this policy to clients who aren’t insured with Parksure. Check out www.flamesure.co.uk for more information.’

Matt went onto explain that, for Parksure, the show is also about industry networking, meeting the manufacturers of the homes themselves, as well as park owners.

He added: ‘Having had the opportunity to chat to some of them, we managed to pick up some good contacts from parks that are now going to recommend us to their clients after taking the time to talk to us and looking at the comprehensive cover we can provide.

‘That’s what it’s all about: catching up with existing clients, answering questions and queries from potential customers, and connecting with the many tradesmen at the show.

‘We’re always looking to improve, if we can, the first-class service we offer to our clients. So, by speaking to people at the show, we can take any reviews or comments on board and, if necessary, look to improve the service we provide to our clients.’ Overall, it was a highly successful and worthwhile show for the Gloucestershire based company.

One couple who visited the Parksure stand went away especially happy. This year’s Parksure promotion of £100-worth of M&S shopping vouchers (as depicted by the hamper on display on the stand) was won by Mr and Mrs Tarplee, park home owners from Cheltenham.

The delighted couple said: ‘Wow! We were so surprised to receive the call from Matt telling us we had won the £100 M&S vouchers – we never win anything!

‘We’ve lived here for many years and we’ve created a large outside decking area for us to use all year round, and for when family and friends come to visit, so we’ll probably buy something for that!

‘We have a M&S home store just down the road so we’re going to pop along there this very afternoon!’
