About the Business
In the late 1920s, Ernest Harmer Healey was a Prudential Agent operating in the Sheffield area from premises on Sharrow Lane. He started E Harmer Healey Ltd, one of the first Insurance Brokers in the Sheffield area, which was incorporated in 1949 as a Limited company.
After Harmer died, His wife continued to run the business for many years and in 1982, Bob Bonsall purchased a share of the company from her after many years working for Midland Bank Insurance services as Assistant Regional Manager for the West Midlands. Bob had known Mrs Healey for many years as his Father, Bill Bonsall had insured his first motorbike with Mrs Healey in the 1930s and he stayed a loyal client for many years with Harmer Healey arranging cover for his haulage business.
Bob grew the business substantially and bought the balance of the shares when Mrs Healey died in 1984. In 1987 he was joined by his son Richard.
