It does not take an industry expert to tell you that a serious life changing illness completely re-evaluates your outlook on life and impacts your loved ones just as much as it does yourself personally. In the U.K. someone is diagnosed with cancer every TWO minutes [Source:www.cancerresearchuk.org], and along with other common critical illnesses such as heart attack, stroke and M.S. on a significant rise this does not make for easy reading. The question then becomes ‘what if I got struck down with one of these horrific illnesses?’
Critical illness cover provides you with a lump sum benefit to help pay for things like medical costs, your mortgage, adjustments to the home if required and general living expenses should you not be able to return to work for a period, or ever.
