Expect the unexpected! 2014 has predictably delivered its fair share of trials and tribulations. Together with you, our special clients we hold our heads up and continue to prosper regardless of what challenges get thrown in our path. We bid farewell to Theresa Legodi who recently retired after almost 40 years’ service at Barkers. Our Barker Family has however grown with three new members joining our Team this year; Ana Balanco now looks after our Front office, Fiona Pickersgill adds more years of experience to our Claims Team and lastly Rosina Moloatsi is assisting Enneth Nyandeni with our Client hospitality and office catering following Ennie’s recent knee replacement surgery. We continue to take responsibility for providing you and all our “Select Private Clients” with a UNIQUE insurance solution with an unmatched positive personal touch. As you may already know we review all our Select Private Clients Policies on the 1st of November annually and if you have not already received your updated insurance policy schedule by email or post, you will be receiving yours by no later than the 25th October 2014.
We would like to bring to your attention a few points of interest and a number of very important developments over the past 12 months at Barkers;
