Military Life Cover and Serious Illness

We have specialist advisers based at out head office in Swindon, or we can assign you an adviser close to your home or your barracks to see face to face.

If you are a serving member of the Armed Forces, the insurance you will need will be very different to that of a civilian.  With only a limited choice of providers available that do not penalise members of the Armed Forces, it’s important to ensure you are covered with the most appropriate policy.

Did you know that some insurance companies

  • Charge more for Armed Forces Personnel
  • Have a War Zone Exclusion on their policies

Our protection advisers have years of experience with helping Forces families plan to ensure their financial security if the worst should happen.

By considering things like

  • Income
  • Mortgages
  • Debts like loans and credit cards
  • The costs of bringing up children
  • Household bills

Our advisers can build up a picture of your finances and model what could happen if your family were to suffer a death or a Serious Illness diagnosis.  By talking with us you will have bespoke advice, tailored to you and we will ensure that any policy arranged does not carry a War Zone Exclusion.

Whether you want to speak to a specialist at our head office in Swindon, or see an adviser at your home or barracks, you should speak to someone today.
