Mansfield MP Ben Bradley opened a new-look office for chartered insurance brokers and financial planners Cowens — and officially launched its two new brands, Cowens Xpress Cover and Cowens Mortgage Solutions.

The makeover at the Commercial Gate base in Mansfield has created more open-place office space.

Ben said: “I was pleased to be invited back, having launched their new building and branding here four years ago.”

Group chief executive Paul Chaplin said the state-of-the-art facility would help the business attract and retain the highest-quality Mansfield-based staff.

Staff at Cowens helped raise £100 for John Eastwood Hospice, Sutton, at a charity cake sale.
