How is our Snowboarding Insurance different?

If you are planning to go snowboarding abroad, our Sports Travel Insurance can offer you the cover you need. Designed to protect you from a range of risks, from lost luggage to the cost of medical care if you sustain an injury or become ill.
For those that are snowboarding in the UK, our Sports Accident Insurance will be better suited. Providing benefits such as Personal Liability cover and optional income protection, should you be injured and unable to work.
Our policy can also include a range of Winter Sports cover such as ski insurance and off-piste insurance to best suit your requirements. Just tell us exactly what you will be doing on your snowboarding holiday and we can provide you with the cover you need.
