About Charity
The Insurance Charities is the only charity supporting current and former insurance employees and their families across the UK and Ireland.
How do we help?
The charity transforms insurance people’s lives for the better by providing a lifeline to support them with whatever difficulties they may be facing such as redundancy, poor health, domestic abuse, and tragedy.
We can help people throughout their career and beyond with one off and ongoing financial and/or practical support for as long as it’s needed. In 2023/2024 we gave out over £1.4 million to those experiencing financial hardship to help pay for things such as household appliances, school uniform, funeral costs, rehabilitation, and property adaptations. We also work with Shelter UK, to help with complex housing issues, and can give practical support for those with money management and health concerns.

We are keen to talk to employers across the industry about how we could support their colleagues so encourage people to get in touch to find out more.
