Hi

Doing a charity bike ride in a few weeks. One of the conditions is that i must hold personal accident insurance. I've looked around and can only see annual policies.

Is it possible to insure myself for just one event, and if so any recommendations?

Money supermarket doesn't list personal accident.


Thanks

paul

    Do you or a family member/partner who you live with have a contents insurance policy?

    If so read the policy terms and conditions as you may already be covered.
    I'm not cynical I'm realistic :p

    Are they actually after personal accident insurance (which is an awful insurance - its a cash cow to the providers and a waste of money) or is it personal liability insurance?
