TRAVEL INSURANCE ✈️

Why do you need travel insurance?

Life’s unpredictable, and it’s nice to know that if things don’t go as planned, you’re covered.

In the event that you need to cancel your travel plans due to certain unforeseen circumstances – you won’t be left out of pocket as long as you have an insurance policy in place.

If you have a medical emergency whilst you’re away, if you need to cut your trip short for any reason, or if your luggage doesn’t arrive… all of these things will be covered by a comprehensive travel insurance policy.

I will be happy to talk through your travel insurance options provided by our valued insurance partner to make sure that you’re fully protected from the moment you book your holiday.

It's just one more thing I can take care of to give you one less thing to worry about!

Even at this time of year, it is possible to fly around 5hrs and get 30 degrees of sunshine without breaking the bank.

So I have just returned from a week in the sun which was a hugely appreciated dose of vitamin D, a chance to read some books that I was bought last year, and the opportunity to enjoy some spa treatments!

The weather was amazing - as was the pool and the spa!

I have returned to work completely recharged ............ which is just as well looking at the work on my desk!
