Excellence Awards Program

We are excited to announce the launch of the Unimutual Excellence Awards program – celebrating organisations and individuals making positive contributions to the delivery of risk prevention and risk protection services for the higher education and research sectors.

Nominations for the 2024 Unimutual Excellence Awards close on 31 January 2024.

 

Why choose Unimutual?

Thanks to our member-owned structure, Unimutual offers universities, higher education-focused and research institutions asset and risk protection products and services that are tailored to the specific needs of the education sector.


“I suppose if you apply the stereotypes of what you expect from an insurance company, Unimutual doesn’t compare. They don’t keep you waiting on the phone. They visit their member sites and undertake a proper and thorough assessment of their potential risk. They provide advice on risk mitigation. They provide advice on how to keep member contributions down. They are very responsive. They work with you to settle any claims. They share both member and specialist knowledge. They don’t fit the mould.”
