Our name is derived from Dr Nicholas Barbon, who is credited with being the ‘Father of Fire Insurance' after introducing fire insurance for buildings to England after the Great Fire of London in 1666.

As Barbon Insurance Group, we are one of the UK’s leading names in property related insurance, and are made up of a number of individual businesses which are united by a commitment to excellence. Our brands include Keelan Westall, Cadogan Keelan Westall, Deacon, Cadogan Hanover Park (SaifInsure, TruckInsure, Plastech, Performance Media and CareAssured), HomeLet, BibaLet, Letsure and FARR.

Together, these businesses are our strength. Many of them hold market–leading positions, all of them boast some of the most experienced and knowledgeable insurance professionals in the business. Without exception, we’re proud of our brands and the values they demonstrate.
