Society Organ Insurance Scheme
Important message from Sorvio Insurance (October 2024)

This is to advise that very sadly, further to lengthy discussions at last renewal and continuing dialogue, Aviva have advised that they will not be inviting renewal of their insurance facility for the Society when it falls due for renewal. This is due to Aviva’s changing risk appetite and is not a reflection on the Society or its members. It is such a shame that Aviva have taken this decision after a working relationship, which we understand has been running very smoothly for over 50 years.

Sorvio have continued dialogue with alternative insurers and as we are now part of the Ardonagh Group of companies, the Society members will have the opportunity to transfer cover to Walker Midgley, who have a separate facility for fair organs and are a long established specialist scheme broker.

Walker Midgley have a policy specifically designed to provide cover for fair organs, dance organs or street organs whether vehicle mounted, trailer mounted or stand alone together with ancillary items such as music books, rolls and microchips plus generators and the like.

Walker Midgley are a Towergate business and are part of The Ardonagh Group, one of the UK’s leading independent brokers and also have range of specialist policies which include: Steam Powered Road Vehicles (Full Size & Miniature), Vintage Tractors, Model Engineers (both Club/Society and Individuals), Portable & Restoration Steam Engines.

We will write to all current Sorvio policyholders and explain the transfer to the Walker Midgley scheme and Walker Midgley will also write to all policyholders to discuss individual renewal requirements and to confirm their contact details.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank both the Society and the members for their support of Sorvio over many years, it has been much appreciated.
