Royal London offers more than just life insurance.

Critical illness cover ensures you get a lump sum or monthly income if you become critically ill or permanently disabled.
Royal London critical illness plans cover 46 critical conditions, including cancer, heart attacks and strokes. So you will have peace of mind that you will be protected if the worst happens.
Rather than worrying about your finances, you can focus on your recovery.
You might wish to add Children’s Critical Illness Cover to your plan if you have a family. This will protect your children should they be diagnosed with a critical illness. You can use any payout to cover any loss of income, pay for any adaptions to your home (if required), or even take that once-in-a-lifetime dream family holiday to help you all recuperate from the stress.
You might also need to consider adding income protection to your insurance plan.
Income protection does exactly what it says. It protects your income should you not be able to work because of illness or injury. It will reassure you that if you are signed off, you will still have an income until you are deemed fit to return to work by a doctor. If your employer only offers statutory sick pay or you are self-employed and not eligible for statutory support, your income protection plan could be vital.
If you can never return to work, your income protection plan could pay out until you reach retirement age (or reach the end of the policy term, whichever is earliest).
These insurance plans will keep your savings safe and give you peace of mind that you can focus on your family rather than your finances.
