The Insurance Charities Awareness Week takes place from 20–24 June
Jun 17 2016
The Insurance Charities supports individuals and families associated with the insurance industry in the UK and Ireland who are suffering financial hardship.
The charity offers friendly advice and support during financial or health difficulties and is funded entirely by donations from those working in the insurance industry.
Each year, the Insurance Charities pays out over €1.5 million to past and present insurance professionals and their families.
How The Insurance Charities can help
The Insurance Charities can offer assistance if:
- you or a dependent relative has worked for at least five years in the insurance industry, in any role, in Ireland or the UK,
- you are in a position of financial hardship,
- you have experienced an element of misfortune that has contributed to your financial hardship, such as a health issue, unemployment or marital breakdown.
