Insurance brokers Clegg Gifford open Harrogate office
Insurance brokers Clegg Gifford opened their office in Harrogate yesterday with their superhero mascots in tow.
Clegg Gifford moved into the former Skipton Building Society office on Princes Street and launched with a party, inviting clients and local businesses.
It took just five weeks to get the office, which underwent a full refurbishment, ready for opening.
The move into Harrogate has employed four people so far but the office has the capacity for up to 15.
Toby Clegg, CEO of the Clegg Gifford group, told the Stray Ferret:
"We like to have fun. Insurance is not the most exciting topic but we're different, we like to bring a bit of fun and put our people at the forefront.
"We find that approach gets a better outcome for our customer and ultimately makes them happier. We have always had a book of business here through our Westminster Insurance so we are building on that good foundation."

Scott Markham, branch manager at the new Harrogate office, said:
"We've had a fantastic turnout today, it's just what we've been hoping for. It's a fabulous location and well appointed.
"It's about creating a really warm welcome, we want to be at the centre of the community as friends and neighbours with our potential clients."
