IPS World Cup Fantasy Football 2010 WINNER
14/07/2010
Congratulations to Dean Tankard and his team Heskey Is God who are the IPS World Cup Fantasy League Champions. Having won the £1000 main prize, in true football style we'd expect nothing less than for Dean to be taking himself off to La Manga for some well earned sun and relaxation after a hard fought Fantasy World Cup - it's nice to see someone from England performed well in the World Cup! Well done Dean and thank you to everyone who took part in what really was an enjoyable inaugural foray in to the world of Fantasy Football for IPS.

Edward Snell
05/01/2010 
The Directors of the IPS Group regret to announce the tragic and premature death of our much respected colleague and fellow director Edward Snell on Christmas Day following a stroke. Edward made a substantial contribution to the growth and success of IPS over the past 24 years and will be sadly missed by many people including his colleagues, clients and members of his extensive network in the insurance industry both in the UK and internationally.
Our thoughts are with his wife Jenny, stepson Will and family at this most difficult time. A memorial service will be held at St Margaret's, Lothbury EC2R 7HH in the City of London on Friday 15th January at 3.00 PM. This will be followed by a reception at the Merchant Taylors' Hall, Threadneedle St., EC2R 8JB. Please do not send flowers; instead Jenny and the family have suggested donations to the Stroke Association and a Just Giving page has been set up for this purpose: www.justgiving.com/ed-snell.
