TAURANGA TEAM’S 2019<br />
SHORTS DAY FUNDRAISING<br />
FOR HOSPICE.<br />
CROMBIE LOCKWOOD<br />
Supporting clients and the community<br />
AS INSURANCE<br />
BROKERS, HELPING<br />
PEOPLE and building<br />
strong relationships<br />
is at the heart of what<br />
Crombie Lockwood<br />
does every day.<br />
By getting to know their clients’<br />
businesses and understanding the risks<br />
they face, Crombie Lockwood provides<br />
insurance solutions that will position<br />
their clients to financially survive any<br />
insurable event. Yet their commitment to<br />
protect what’s important and help when<br />
times get tough doesn’t end there and<br />
naturally extends to the local community.<br />
Crombie Lockwood was founded in<br />
the provinces (in Hawke’s Bay in fact),<br />
and in the 40 years since then, while<br />
they’ve grown to all corners of the<br />
country, their dedication to giving back<br />
hasn’t diminished. In this Bay, they’ve<br />
been supporting the Waipuna Hospice<br />
for more than 12 years. In that time, the<br />
Crombie Lockwood Tauranga team has<br />
grown rapidly and so has the desire to<br />
lend a hand. Today the team of around<br />
40 make up some of the 800 volunteers<br />
who regularly give their time to the<br />
Hospice.<br />
Crombie Lockwood Tauranga Group<br />
broking manager Janine Rodgers, said<br />
that working with Waipuna Hospice was<br />
a great way to give back and to foster<br />
team culture.<br />
“Getting involved with the Hospice has<br />
been a brilliant way for our team to build<br />
relationships as well as give back. We<br />
come together inside and outside office<br />
hours to help out,” she said.<br />
“Operating the Hospice’s six charity<br />
shops is one of the most important<br />
roles we help with as it’s a big source<br />
of revenue for them. But we also do a<br />
quarterly wash of the buildings at Te<br />
Puna, we’ve helped prepare goods for<br />
sale, ushered fundraising shows and<br />
concerts, marshalled cars at the annual<br />
remembrance service and prepared<br />
afternoon tea for Hospice visitors. Any<br />
help they need we’re keen to get stuck<br />
in,” said Rodgers.<br />
Protecting Waipuna Hospice’s future<br />
with the right insurance<br />
Aside from volunteer work, Crombie<br />
Lockwood Tauranga has worked with<br />
Waipuna Hospice as their insurance<br />
broker for many years.<br />
“As with all our clients, we strive to learn<br />
as much about their business as possible<br />
and volunteering has most definitely<br />
helped with that,” said Rodgers.<br />
“We’ve learned first-hand about<br />
their risks. And that has given us even<br />
greater insight into their exposures and<br />
operations so we can tailor an insurance<br />
programme to best fit their needs.”<br />
“Getting involved with the Hospice<br />
has been a brilliant way for our team<br />
to build relationships as well as give<br />
back.” – Janine Rodgers<br />
And while Rodgers said Crombie<br />
Lockwood couldn’t commit to<br />
volunteering for all clients, they are<br />
dedicated to supporting local business<br />
with their insurance needs. “We want to<br />
give all Crombie Lockwood clients peace<br />
of mind that their insurance is sorted so<br />
that they can get on with whatever it is<br />
they do best. And we’re pretty proud<br />
that for Hospice that’s looking after<br />
people when it’s needed most.”<br />
