The Drive Further Collective is celebrating a landmark year with a major industry accolade, as its insurer, Financial & Legal, has been named Personal Lines Insurer of the Year at the National Insurance Awards 2025 for the second year running.
Based in Cheadle, Cheshire, the Drive Further Collective encompasses Financial & Legal, MSL, Supportis, Dual Drive, and Magnus Insurance Services. The group specialises in legal expenses insurance, offering both before-the-event and after-the-event products.
The award marks a significant milestone as Drive Further commemorates 40 years of service. Founded by David Garner, the business has grown from humble beginnings – when David rented out his own Renault 5 to found MSL – into a market-leading provider of insurance, legal, and claims services.
Today, under the leadership of his son, Nick Garner, Drive Further continues to expand its offerings to brokers, intermediaries, SMEs, insurers, solicitors, and their customers.
Commenting on the achievement, Nick Garner, CEO of Drive Further, said: “Winning Personal Lines Insurer of the Year at the National Insurance Awards is a tremendous honour and a testament to the dedication of our teams. For forty years, we have remained committed to delivering the highest standards of service, and this recognition reinforces our ongoing efforts to support our partners and customers.”
The National Insurance Awards celebrate excellence and innovation in the insurance sector, recognising firms that demonstrate outstanding performance and customer-focused solutions. This latest accolade reinforces the Drive Further Collective’s commitment to growth, innovation, and service excellence as it enters its fifth decade in business.
