UNITED KINGDOM, 17 February 2026

Acrisure UK has announced its most successful year of charitable fundraising to date, raising more than £200,000 for charities across the country. A collective effort by hundreds of colleagues across the Acrisure UK businesses (Acrisure Re, Acrisure London Wholesale and Acrisure UK Broking’s regional offices) totalled £223,446 to support various worthy causes at both a national and local level.

The annual Acrisure London Charity Football Tournament was a defining moment in May, bringing together 20 teams of insurers, partners and Acrisure employees at Stamford Bridge to raise more than £120,000. In 2025 alone, Acrisure employees raised an incredible £180,728 for its UK Lead Charity, Brain Research UK, surpassing the initial target of £150,000. An impressive £32,665 of the total was raised by Acrisure’s regional offices for local charities, including Trent Bridge Community Trust in Nottingham. Alongside this, £10,053 was also raised through Acrisure’s Nomination Fund – an initiative that enables employees to nominate charities to receive donations.

Mark Mcilquham, CEO at Acrisure UK, said: “I’m incredibly proud of what we achieved together in memory of our former colleague to raise such a fantastic sum for Brain Research UK. A special thank you to our Charity Committee, as well as insurers and clients who have supported us along the way. Our UK teams have gone above and beyond this year for our chosen charities all over the country that are close to many of our hearts. This is a defining moment for us to show what we are capable of when we work together with a shared vision and set of values as Acrisure.”

Initiatives were spearheaded by Acrisure’s Charity Committee, led by Head of Charity and Managing Director at Acrisure London Wholesale, Tom Quy, and Kate Hardy, Office Co-ordinator and Charity Lead. Other events arranged throughout the year included a StepSense walking challenge, marathon entries, abseils, bake offs and quiz nights.

Tom Quy added: “Last year was an incredible year of fundraising across the UK for some wonderful causes, with our Charity Committee working hard behind the scenes to make this possible by uniting our UK businesses with one goal. We have ambitious plans for 2026 and can’t wait to make these a reality, from our UK base in London through to our regional offices spanning up to Scotland.”

Yvonne West, Events and Community Fundraising Manager at Brain Research UK, said: “Brain Research UK can’t thank everyone at Acrisure enough for this incredible support. Seeing the passion and effort that went into raising such a phenomenal amount has been genuinely moving. This funding will make a real difference to our work at the forefront of neurological research, and to support the lives of the individuals and families we exist to help.”

Acrisure will continue to champion regional and local causes this year to further strengthen links within the communities it operates and is looking forward to hosting its sixth annual charity football tournament, which will take place in May and will feature a new women’s match as part of the event.

Acrisure in the UK is united by shared values and a commitment to combining deep industry expertise with advanced technology. Acrisure’s London headquarters in the UK at 40 Leadenhall Street is home to UK Retail Broking, Reinsurance, London Wholesale, Corporate Advisory Services and Flux Syndicate 1985.
