Balens have been the main recommended insurance broker for
privately practising Occupational Therapists for many
years now. Whether you are an individual OT or a
Corporate delivering OT and other Health Services, we are
able to provide an affordable quality solution with a
comprehensive range of cover. We regularly
attend Private and Public Sector OT Conferences and keep
up to date with developments in the OT and Medico-Legal
fields. OTs have a very wide range of activities and
abilities, and our cover has been designed to encompass all of
these.

the BAOT to ensure that private practitioners were fully
covered. Since then David's daugher Annie obtained a BSc
honours degree in Occupational Therapy and has been working in

UK. Annie has now joined Balens and is actively
involved in the family firm.
