Personal Accident and Medical Expenses Policy
This insurance is provided by Headquarters and covers the total Membership as shown on the Annual Census Return together with new Members joining during the year in the British Isles, including British Scouts in Western Europe and British Groups Abroad.
Details of the current benefits under this policy may be obtained from Scout Insurance Services.
Special travel insurance should be obtained for authorised Scout visits abroad.
Parties of up to five foreign Scouts visiting the British Isles to take part in Scout activities organised by a British home unit are also covered by this policy. Larger parties can be insured by the host unit if the visiting Scouts are not already insured through their home Association.
The policy covers accidents and medical expenses in the British Isles and on the continent of Europe.
