cheap public liability insurance

Options
I'm a photographer and my public liability insurance is due for renewal. I have to have at least 5 million, does anyone know of a good/reasonable insurer. I'm with pavilion/photoguard at the moment.
Thanks for any advice or recommendations

    I currently use http://www.insuredrisks.co.uk for my public liability.
    I came into this world with nothing and I'm gonna leave with nothing.

    Photography is a very low risk trade in terms of obtaining Public Liability. You can try anywhere and should be able to get this for less than £150 for £5m cover.
    Kind regards,

    You could try LIABILITYGUARD - if you go through quidco there's 7.5% cashback. They also offer double the difference if you find the same cover cheaper elsewhere.
    Not a personal recommendation, just came across it browsing quidco and remembered this thread.

    thanks Ian, they are part of the group I'm already with. Insuredrisks don't do photographers, so I'll call portwood when they are open.

    My present renewal quote is £208 a year for 5 million pub liability insurance and £3000 of equipment insurance in the same policy. Because I had only had it for a year I wasn't sure if I was getting a good price, although I had rang around when I was intitially getting cover and photoguard/pavillion seemed the best option.

    I really appreciate people's advice as I know this isn't a normal type of insurance.
