Alan has seen some changes at Three Counties since he started (all for the better we might add !) and there was a tinge of sadness as he said his goodbyes today and left the building for the last time.

Of course, we will be seeing Alan again at various company functions and he will, no doubt, pop his head round the door when he is passing.

We all wish him well and for those of you whose affairs were looked after by Alan, rest assured that your insurances will have been assigned to a very competent member of our team so as to ensure that you continue to receive the same level of professional service.

Please also be patient during these difficult times. There are many, many people in the same situation as yourself and all are trying to access the same services and tradesmen at the same time. This will inevitably lead to frustration but we would urge you to consider the magnitude of the flood situation and would ask that you lower your expectations accordingly.
