Hi wondering if anyone can help me. Iv been trying to get holiday insurance but unable to find anyone who will insure me. I have stage 4 breast cancer which is classed as terminal but treatable. Im doing well at the minute. If anyone can help thankyou
Do you have a packaged bank account as they should still cover you but you have to ring .
Here's a link to travel insurance forum
Also look into whether you are entitled to PIP if under state pension age. If awarded anyone who provides you with care (physical/emotional) for 35 hours a week and takes home less than £135 a week can claim carers. Macmillan can provide you with help claiming
Daughter uses ‘Insurancewith’ even while she was told to get her affairs in order she was still touring the world as a musician. They still insured her after her bone marrow transplant when she was touring with Seal, 10 months post transplant, with approval from her team.
Hope you get some help, it’s really useful to phone companies as they are often able to get you better information.

Perhaps UK Insurance who provides the insurance for Nationwide Flexaccount ?
You could try StaySure.
I got annual policy with them while still having treatment. There is an extensive online questionnaire and it is obviously important to answer thoroughly and correctly. You may need to ask your GP what to put for some answers (I did, by telephone appt). Ultimately, you may need to speak with them. Don't ask, don't get, so go for it!
Good luck
we'd booked with Staysure prior to my diagnosis, tried to update details while I was recovering from surgery & they weren't sure they would be able to continue my cover as at that point I didn't know if I was to have further treatment.
I did ask breast care nurse while I was waiting for treatment and she said a lot of her patients have found M&S and Boots very good. I looked at both as a back-up and both would have covered me even if I was going to have further treatment
As it was I updated details after radiotherapy and it only cost me a further £5.50 with Staysure.
