Insurance

What is and is not covered

As part of Marie Curie’s insurance, local fundraising groups are covered in certain activities:

Events

Marie Curie Cancer Care is insured against claims made by participants and volunteers for injury sustained while taking part in a fundraising event as a result of our negligence. This includes cover for all volunteers involved in a fundraising event which is being arranged by a fundraising group.

Fundraising groups have a duty to follow good risk management and comply with the established procedures described in the fundraising group handbook.

Please ask your Community Fundraiser for further guidance if you are unsure about what the insurance covers.

This insurance does not cover the following:

Drivers

Fundraising group members are not covered by Marie Curie Cancer Care motor insurance and must complete a Driver’s Safety Declaration form.

Personal possessions and events held in the home

Fundraising group members are not covered for personal possessions or property.

We recommend you have your own household and contents insurance and ask your insurers if you are covered during a home-based fundraising event.
