TSB bike insurance is probably the best value for money. https://www.tsb.co.uk/home-insurance/bicycle-insurance/

Laka is a bit different from normal insurance, variable pricing with a monthly cap, if there are no claims in your group pool in any particular month, you pay nothing.

Have you asked Thorn/SJS? Can they provide a written valuation?
