Welcome to the Insurance Institute of Sussex website.

Our profession has stood firm since 1691 in the face of war, plague, fire and famine. Our modern courtship with the pandemic, mounting war in Europe and the modern risks of fire in housing stock are a clear indication that our profession, particularly with the professionalism that membership of the Chartered Insurance Institute brings, is needed now more than ever.

At a local level, I am keen to see more events in person over the next 12 months, especially where these allow our novice members to engage and learn from experienced members. I also want to build a community network amongst us all.

Whether online, face to face, national, regional or local, our events are open to all members and I encourage everyone to take advantage of the opportunities that these events bring. Full details are shared with members and promoted on our website. I remain committed to ensuring that our diversity and openness is clear. We have a vacancy on our Council for a diversity officer, so please email me if you would like to help us in this vital area.
