We believe in helping you safeguard your travel arrangements, so you're not exposed to severe financial risk, should something unforeseen happen. We also believe you should be treated as a real person, not just a policy number. Why do we believe this? Because we have developed from the medical charity sector, not from what some people might regard as the hard-faced insurance or financial sectors.

We understand that people are in different situations and therefore have differing needs. We've therefore developed a range of travel insurance policies to meet those needs. For example:

• If you have a Pre-existing medical condition such as diabetes, cancer, blood pressure or a heart condition.
• If you have HIV, our specialist policy uniquely doesn't disclose that you are HIV+ on your documents. It can also include other medical conditions.
• Do you or have you experienced depression or some other 'psychological condition'? Depending on your circumstances, we might be able to offer cover.
• If you'd like to have private hospital treatment (policies usually cover treatment only in State hospitals), we have a 'top-up' policy that provides this.
• Do you have a terminal prognosis? Depending on individual circumstances, we might still be able to offer cover.
• If you are older person our policy doesn't have an upper age limit.
• Have you already left the UK and forgotten to take out travel insurance or are you abroad and want to extend a trip but your current provider is unable to help? Ours can!
• Have you not lived in the UK for six months and need travel insurance?
• Are you going on a long trip? We can cover you for up to 365 days!
• Do you need one-way cover? (maybe you're returning home permanently from the UK)
• If you're going skiing or taking part in other winter sports, we can cover you.
• If you're taking part in sports or activities, we can can cover a comprehensive list of them.
• Are you backpacking? There are special rates for you.
• If you are a Non-UK resident and wish to travel to any other country, we provide specialist policies for you.

Residency conditions: some policies can cover residents of the Channel Islands but some do not. Please check the policy wording of the policy appropriate to you.
