Do you need Sports Injury Protection cover?

Sports-related injuries result in a high number of visits to the Casualty Department each year, and even temporary injuries such as fractures, dislocations or torn ligaments can lead to a long time off work.

Following an injury, you may also need physiotherapy or dental treatment, and costs are escalating all the time. And even if your treatment is covered on the NHS, there are still other hidden costs of recovery:

• Loss of earnings and time off work
• Costs of medical aids and special equipment
• Extra help you may need around the home
• Travel to and from the hospital
• Hospital parking fees

The list doesn't end here, so it's not surprising that your favourite sport could cost you more than you'd anticipated. Don't be caught out − get your Sports Injury Insurance quote today.

How long could you manage without Sports Injury Insurance?

Very few of us have the financial means to cover all medical circumstances, and with healthcare costs escalating all the time, you don't want to be caught out. Dental bills can run into hundreds of pounds, a course of physiotherapy can be as much as £200 or more, and a broken leg could keep you off work for weeks.

When considering Sports Insurance, ask yourself:

• How long would my savings last if I was unable to work due to a serious sports injury?
• If I was unable to work how much would my employer pay me?
• If you're self-employed - how long could I pay the bills and the mortgage if I was unable to work?
• If your job relies on you being fit and active - what other occupation could I take up?

With low prices starting from only £7.02 a month, Sports Injury Insurance from helpucover could save you money and stress at a difficult time. Get your quote for Sports Insurance today.
