Comprehensive Travel Insurance – for peace of mind 

The Stroke Association Insurance Services now brings you Platinum and Gold travel insurance - providing competitive and comprehensive cover for stroke survivors, their families and friends travelling with them, and for supporters of The Stroke Association. Our insurance services will provide cover for all pre-existing medical conditions and disabilities.

Please bear in mind that travel insurance premiums have been affected by the spiralling costs of overseas medical treatment, the instability of the pound against the euro and the dollar, tax changes and general inflation within the UK and key countries like the USA.

Some of the additional benefits include:

  • there is no separate referral for medical screening and this allows for quote to purchase in one call
  • our questions are designed to assess your individual condition 
  • the documentation confirms all information declared
  • worldwide cover is available
  • no upper age limit on our Single trip policies
  • annual Multi trip policies available up to age 70 for Europe and Worldwide excluding USA, Canada and the Caribbean, and up to age 65 for Worldwide including USA, Canada and the Caribbean
  • single trip policies available up to 365 days (may be restricted to 92 days depending on age, destination and health)
  • annual Multi trip policies cover trips up to 45 day, and
  • waiting list cover is available.

Mrs L, aged 73 from Lancashire was looking to go on a Mediterranean cruise. After contacting three different companies, including one she had dealt with before, she didn't feel comfortable and confident that she would be covered for stroke and other medical conditions.

Mrs L heard about The Stroke Association Insurance Services and made an initial enquiry, followed later by quotation and policy purchase. After speaking to our friendly and understanding team members, Mrs L was so pleased that she told us, 'he's done wonders for me, that young man!'

There are conditions and restrictions as to what is covered and the EHIC does not provide any cover for repatriation.

Full details of the cover provided by the EHIC can be found on the EHIC website. This also provides a link giving you details of the conditions and restrictions in each country
