Prestige Insurance Holdings recognised for commitment to employee health and wellbeing

June 2026

Prestige Insurance Holdings has achieved Level 3 in a recent audit of its workplace health and wellbeing activities called the Take 5 Accreditation.

Based on the 5 Steps to Wellbeing with three levels of accreditation available, the Take 5 Accreditation was delivered as part of a partnership between Business in the Community and Belfast Health & Social Care Trust and funded by NHS Charities Together.

Since Autumn 2025, the Group’s Better Together programme and internal champions have been working towards the BITC Take 5 accreditation and we are delighted to say that we have been awarded the highest achievement.  

Prestige Insurance Holdings was one of 10 companies recognised at a special event held on 17 June at Belfast Castle.

Catherine Downey, Wellbeing Programme Manager at Business in the Community commented: “By completing the Take 5 Accreditation, these organisations are publicly demonstrating their commitment to the wellbeing of their employees in a responsible and transparent manner. The process and results allow organisations to examine and reflect on their wellbeing performance, benchmark themselves against others and drive improvements for the benefit of their people and to strengthen their business.  

Wendy Close, People Director at Prestige Insurance Holdings said:
‘We are incredibly proud to achieve the highest level of the Take 5 accreditation and it’s a testament to the dedication of our teams.  It reflects our commitment to creating a workplace where everyone can flourish both professionally and personally.   We will continue to invest in employee health and wellbeing, with an inclusive and supportive culture at our core’

Clare Flynn, Advanced Health Improvement Practitioner at Belfast Health & Social Care Trust added: “The Take 5 Accreditation supports workplaces to strategically implement five steps to wellbeing in their health and wellbeing strategy for their employees. It is really encouraging to see so many organisations being recognised for their commitment to employee health and wellbeing.”
