Trisha & Harry - Ill-Health, Infirmity & Dying
Harry and Trisha are expecting another child and want to make sure they have all their affairs in order to protect their family if something should happen to them.
Sample insurance market data gathered by Insuring Women’s Futures indicated over half of individuals protected by corporate healthcare are male, and over ¾ of family policies have a male principal member.
Trisha took out corporate health insurance through her work to protect them all, but she is not clear how the cover for her husband and family would be affected if something happened to her. It’s always a good idea to check with employee benefits and the insurance provider. This will help Harry decide if he should take out his own cover through his work.
59% of UK adults have not written a will.*
Harry and Trisha do have wills but they have not updated them for some time. Now that they are extending their family it makes sense to take stock and get their affairs in order.
