Dear Online Forum
I am not used to communicating like this, but I need a little bit of help please. I want to go on holiday, but I am finding it very hard to find Travel insurance! Staysure and InsuranceWith will not insure me. Does anyone have any suggestions of a Travel Insurance that they think are likely to cover me?
I have secondary breast cancer (diagnosed Sep 2023). It was successfully treated until Feb this year (2025), when it spread. I am now on a new drug that so far is successfully treating the cancer - it is now stable. Any help would be much appreciated. Kind regards Maggie/Tammy.
Hi Tammy01c090 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and although I'm not a member of this group your subject line caught my attention.
As you know, the online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join us over in the travel insurance group where you'll find lots of recommendations for travel insurers to try.
To join, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined have a look through the threads there called 'Recommended Travel Insurance' and Recommended travel insurance 2023-24', which you'll find on the first page. They are full of recommendations from other cancer patients who have got travel insurance.
In the past I've used payingtoomuch.com and goodtogoinsurance.com, although I didn't have secondary breast cancer.
