Specified Illness/Income Protection

Protecting You in The Case of Illness.

Are you and your family protected, should anything happen you and prevent you from working?

With Medical advances, people are more likely to survive serious illnesses. But this means that more people are likely to take prolonged periods off work for treatment and recovery. This has a huge impact on their income and as a result can hinder recovery.

It’s estimated that €50,000 would last 17 months, based on monthly outgoings of €3,000. There are two distinctly different protection plans to safeguard against financial loss as a result of illness or injury!
