Our History

After several successful years in sales, Mark Bates, still our Managing Director, started the Premier Care range to raise the level of service in the industry. He focused on a sector of society where it is most needed, specifically the over 50s and disabled people.

I know from first-hand experience how vital help is when your health fails and how important it is to protect yourself from personal injury claims, particularly in today's compensation culture. This is my driving force and why I am so passionate about continuing to provide the very best insurance facilities for people with such specific requirements. - Mark Bates

Mark Bates Ltd is proud to be an award winning, family run business, that has built its foundations on looking after customers and providing unparalleled levels of service. 

We started in 1994 with mobility scooter and powerchair insurance, still one of our most popular policies. Today we offer a range of specialist cover, all supported from our head office in Grantham, Lincolnshire.
