Fed up with years of soaring insurance costs and rumours of dubious new providers in the market, the Leadmill sought the advice of Noctis. Their recommendation was to join the new nightclub insurance scheme set up by NDML. With its unique access to affordable cover and an experienced team behind it, NDML promise both cost savings and the advice & support nightclubs need to survive in an ever-changing risk environment.

Most importantly, costs are down, and Claims and requests for advice have been dealt with quickly and effectively.
