Liability Insurance

JP Jessica Phillips Public Seen by 112

I'm looking for recommendations for liability insurance to cover our board members and directors. Any suggestions, things to look out for, tips in general? Thank you in advance!

What kind of activity are you doing? As an artist-run organization, we had to take out specialist artist insurance, because most insurers would not take on a cooperative maker space that is not a charity...

This!

When i was running a business repairing and maintaining my customer's computers, i had to get insurance from a speciality insurer.

Yes, you'll need some form of Public Liability Insurance, but within your industry sector, there are insurance providers specialising in specific industry niches, who provide the focused insurance cover that your industry sector needs.

We are an online learning platform, teachers co-op. I'll have to see if I can find anything industry specific.
