Income Protection Insurance
If your income stopped, how long would your savings last?
It’s a big question. And one you don’t really want to think about. Take out Income Protection Insurance and you won’t have to.
What is Income Protection Insurance?
Income Protection Insurance minimises the impact of an injury or illness on your family and gives you a regular income when you can’t work. It’s great as a backup, and essential if you’re self-employed and don’t get statutory sick pay.
“We’re not here to sell insurance policies. We’re here to ask questions and give no-nonsense advice. And when we do this, the right policy naturally follows.”

How Income Protection Insurance works
No one can predict what’s around the corner and being forced to take time off work creates financial pressure. Income Protection Insurance means you won’t have to worry about how your mortgage and bills will be paid if you can’t work.
You pay a monthly or annual premium. And if you need time off after an accident or to recover from a serious illness, you’ll get regular payments that replace a proportion of your taxable income (including salary or dividends).

-
Affordable premiums
Keep costs down by increasing the length of time before your payments start or by limiting the payment period to a fixed number of years.
