Critical Illness Cover
Our Critical Illness Policies pay out if you are diagnosed with, or undergo surgery for a critical illness.
How would you cope financially if you had a critical illness?

Our expert insurance specialists based in Essex & London can help you get the financial protection thats right for you and your family!
Why Choose Critical Illness Cover?
Critical Illness Cover provides stand alone cover which pays out if you’re diagnosed with, or undergo surgery for a range of serious critical illnesses, as well as a number of more common and sometimes less sever conditions.
Most importantly, Critical Illness cover also includes valuable cover for your children as standard.
We can find the Critical Illness cover that is tailored to your needs and budget by choosing from a range of options and benefits which are designed to deliver quality cover.
