Aston Lark buys Phoenix Healthcare
Phoenix specialises in corporate healthcare provision and is Aston Lark’s second deal in 2022.
Phoenix Healthcare, which was established in 1996 and is based in Oadby, Leicestershire has been acquired by Aston Lark for an undisclosed sum.
Paul Wright, founding director of Phoenix Healthcare, said: “Both Lee Shorter and I have over 35 years’ experience in the industry, and are delighted to choose Aston Lark as the long-term partner for our business. We firmly believe that they will be a great home for our staff and share our client-first approach to corporate healthcare broking.”

Lee Shorter, founding director of Phoenix Healthcare, added: “Becoming part of Aston Lark and having access to their resources and products will provide great opportunity for further helping our clients.”
The deal that will see Aston Lark join up-up with Howden Group was announced last year.
At the time Aston Lark Group CEO, Peter Blanc, stated that the business would remain on the acquisition trail despite being bought itself.
The Phoenix move follows Aston Lark’s purchase of Hove-based Mainstay Insurance which offers commercial and risk management solutions.
Blanc said: “When I first met Paul and Lee, it was clear that they share the same client service ethos as Aston Lark. We’re becoming a real powerhouse in Private Medical Insurance, and I’m delighted to welcome Paul, Lee and their team to the Aston Lark family.”
