Life is full of surprises, so it’s important to be prepared if things don’t go to plan.

Whether it’s an accident, hospitalisation or something more serious that knocks you off course, having the right protection in place can make all the difference.

The facts

• Around 2.7 million hospital admissions each year are caused by an accident in the home
• 50% of under 5s will visit A&E every year
• More than 14,000 people die as a result of accidents across the UK each year
• Every day around 11 young people in the UK are diagnosed with cancer
