Shared Ownership Buildings Insurance

I've owned 30% of my shared ownership property for 27 yrs and the housing association have just informed me that the building insurance policy should be in joint names with myself and the HA. I've checked the lease, which confirms this (to my surprise) and I've always put just myself as the policyholder.
When completing details online for all the comparison sites, there's never an option for shared ownership - only for homeowner or renter.
So can any forumites suggest companies that will provide quotes for shared ownership at a reasonable cost?
Many thanks in anticipation of your help.

Its less about ownership and more about being able to name a second party who is business... I doubt you'll find many/any online sellers that do this, most allow a second policyholder but its setup for it to be a natural person (ie first name, second name) but if you do quotes ignoring the request then before buying telephone/live chat the seller in question and ask if they can add a joint policyholder of a company there may be some that can as call centres have slightly more tools than online forms that deal with the 99%0
