FAQ's

As with any other business, there are many things that can go wrong within charitable organisations. Some of the more common incidents might include a volunteer injuring themselves, an accident at a fundraising event involving a member of the public, or even an allegation of wrongdoing against a charity employee or trustee. Any of these could have disastrous consequences for your organisation.

To make matters worse, charities are often particularly vulnerable as they may not have the finances available to pay any costs or damages to which they find themselves liable in the event of a successful claim. Therefore, it really is essential that all charities and charitable organisations have full charity insurance.

Charities typically require some or all of the following types of cover:

  • Employers’ Liability Insurance

  • Professional Indemnity Insurance

  • Public Liability Insurance

  • Management Liability Insurance

  • Personal Accident cover

  • Employment Law protection

  • Building Insurance

  • Charity Trustees and Indemnity Insurance

  • Charity Liability Insurance

  • Charity Minibus Insurance

  • Charity Trustee Insurance

  • Charity Event Insurance

  • Malpractice Insurance
