Abode, the new home for Bruford & Vallance

Bruford & Vallance is now part of Abode

We are pleased to announce that Bruford & Vallance Insurance Services Ltd completed its integration with Abode, listed property specialists and a trading name of Howden UK Brokers Limited, on 12 January 2026. For Bruford & Vallance clients, the service remains the same. The Bruford & Vallance team of insurance specialists joins Howden to continue to service your needs. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss how these changes might affect you.

As part of the wider Howden Group, we’ll use our strong insurer relationships and our extensive market access to achieve the most effective outcomes for you, whether that’s eliminating gaps in your insurance cover, trying to reduce premiums, offering expert risk management support, or ensuring a claim is settled fairly and efficiently.

Our team is empowered to think bigger and challenge the norm. Our employee ownership model means that we’re driven to achieve more, collaborating across specialisms to deliver for our clients. We’re delighted that the Bruford & Vallance team has joined Abode and Howden and will continue to provide you with excellent service and advice to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible for you.
