Welcome Festival 2021 Tasmanian Gothic has its place, but Ten Days on the Island is Tasmanian Romantic. Our cover image by photographer Jess Bonde was inspired by The Wanderer Above a Sea of Fog, a self-portrait painted about 200 years ago by Caspar David Friedrich – the artist silhouetted against a vast landscape contemplating the wild and sublime in nature. It is our homage to the Romantic movement in the mid-19th Century, when art, music, philosophy and poetry evoked the experience of intense emotion. The feelings of awe and wonder inspired by the immense, ancient landscapes of lutruwita/Tasmania are emotions we all share. lutruwita/Tasmania is sometimes called the ‘heart-shaped island’. The idea of our island state in the shape of a heart, symbolising resilience, connectedness and empathy, has been a powerful metaphor guiding the development of this Festival. For our artists and communities the pandemic was a defining experience. Those months took us all to a darker place, but they also stimulated a surge in creative activity born of deep reflection and made us hungrier for human connection. Creating the 2021 edition of Ten Days on the Island has been a festival-making journey unlike any other, but the fact that this has not been the easiest time to organise a festival makes it all the more vital that we have! As concepts of ‘local’ and ‘global’ flow into each other through the digital experience, we are proud to present a 2021 Festival that celebrates the brilliance, innovation and ingenuity of lutruwita/Tasmania’s global local artists. This special 20th anniversary Festival is one for the Tasmanian Romantic. Throw yourself into these extraordinary landscapes and let your emotions run wild!

TEn Insurance Services is a nationwide broker network with members across the UK. We support Insurance Professionals who wish to establish an Insurance Broker and, also, several small established Brokers seeking to retain their own identity and client relationships, whilst collaborating with a central independent collective. TEn Insurance takes on, amalgamates and streamlines the unproductive and unprofitable parts of a broker and seeks to achieve efficiencies and economies of scale. Essentially, this is an outsourcing of things other than the client relationship, which remain firmly under the control of each Broker Member. TEn primarily operates the Appointed Representative (AR) model, whereby it is the network that is authorised and regulated by the FCA and, in turn, becomes responsible to the FCA for the oversight and guidance of its Members. All Insurer TOBAs are held centrally and reconciliation of monthly Insurer Statements are the exclusive function of our centralised Accounts Department. Equally, the whole TEn community runs on a pre-configured Acturis system, which is supported by a central IT Department. Advice and direction in terms of Compliance is also a network function, whilst teams of Broker Technicians (a.k.a Account Handlers) are always ready to assist with the processing and placement of almost every class or business. TEn Insurance holds Chartered Broker Status from the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII), although it is only 'a Broker'​, for and on behalf of its Members. We have no conflicting direct business, other than for a handful of clients who are friends and family of directors and staff.
