Not-for-Profit – Charity Insurance
Not-for-profit insurance is a type of insurance you should use if you are involved in the running of a charity or a not-for-profit organisation. Maintaining the correct level of insurance cover to protect your organisation against liability claims or loss of assets is vital. You will also be conscious of the need to minimise the cost of your programme. Price stability and a quality insurer are vitally important in the non-profit sector; where funds may be limited and charity trustees have such an onerous duty of care. To fit these needs it is important you obtain impartial advice on your insurance needs.
