We can arrange cover for legal liability for loss and damage to third party property or personal injury incurred due to your negligence.
While you have animals galore at your events, we have animals galore at home – and dogs in the office – so we understand the madness and mayhem of managing animals! As a team of animal lovers, we are committed to finding the right cover for your animal business while you make sure every event is a success!
This insurance policy is suitable for those who require public liability insurance for holding events, whether they are fundraising events or a chance to advertise your business.
There are two main types of insurance you need if you run animal events. Both are included in our animal event insurance policy.
Public liability – designed to protect you against liability claims for injury caused to third parties or damage to their property as a result of your negligence. For instance, if an animal escapes and bites a member of the public.
The standard limit is £5 million, but it can be extended to £10 million for an additional premium.
Products liability – this covers the business up to £5 million if injuries or damages arise as a result of a defective product that your business had supplied.
We can cover single events and annual events.
Stall holders at your events will need to hold their own public liability.
Employers’ liability – if you have paid, voluntary or self-employed helpers working for your business, you are legally required to have this insurance as this will provide cover should they injure themselves while at work. The amount of cover provided is £10 million.
Personal accident – provides financial compensation if the insured party is unable to work due to an injury or illness, lasting for more than 7 days. If you already have a public liability policy with us, you can either add this cover to your existing policy or consider our stand-alone Cliverton Protect policy, to which you can also add sickness cover and offers benefits like 24/7 worldwide overage. We can offer various levels of cover to suit you and your business so please either call or email the team to discuss your options.
Please note that this does not cover any pre-existing conditions or illness.
