Hi there I think the vasculitis uk magazine has some insurance company ideas, certainly they did in the past. Over the years I’ve had vasculitis I’ve used staysure, and more recently goodtogo......but would also recommend searching online you might find better/cheaper. Fortunately I’ve never had to claim so have no idea what they are really like. Hope this helps

We now use No Limits, but for any companies remember to tell them about everything and ensure that all declared are included for cover (sometimes they quote you excluding)

We used staysure for a trip to America. Lucky we did not have to claim. They had GPA Vasculitis On the drop down box

This is a very good place to start vasculitis.org.uk/living-wi... you will have to shop around but it is worth it. Always read the small print , it’s not just the cost you should be looking at but what the holiday insurance actually covers.

If you going to Europe apply for the EIHC card nhs.uk/common-health-questi... this has been invaluable to both of us whilst visiting Europe, especially John, who has the Vasculitis. It will cease when we leave Europe but you might as well apply while you can.

Have a good holiday 😊

Hi

I have used Avanti insurance.

Last year about £450 for year long world wide.

This year about £90 for a fortnight in Europe.
