His employer/colleagues should have some recomendations0

This close to deploying, consider the MOD's PAX (Personal Accident) and SLI (Service Life Insurance) schemes - info should be in the deployment pack, and payments taken from pay. Any other insurers will want to up premiums and sort loads of paperwork.

PAX only available to current/former service personnel and SLI only available to current regulars/TA.I am a Financial Adviser specialising in Mortgages, Protection, Health and Medical Insurance. I also write wills. All information posted on this site is for discussion only, and should not be taken as advice.0 -
Just been sorting this out for my hubby who is also civvie contractor. Thankfully he gets some provided by his company but to top up we're being quoted between 2K - 7K per year depending on what insurance we want!
If you google personal life insurance for hostile environment workers you will get a couple of companies who can help but do check what insurance the company offer to save some money.
Good luck with it, its a pain but a necessary evil!0
