Household Insurance: Dealing with Under Insurance
This webinar, delivered by Alan Chandler, one of the most popular presenters in the UK, examines the challenge of making sure household policyholders avoid under insurance.
Where the insured has to provide a building sum insured, less than 40% of policyholders in the UK get this correct, we can therefore see there is a major issue of under insurance.

Understanding Grief and Bereavement
Bereavement and grief are things we will experience at some point in our lives. Most people associate grief with the loss of a loved one. We can also experience feelings of loss, grief and bereavement following the loss of a pet, the breakdown of a relationship, the loss of a job and on receiving a diagnosis of a terminal or life-limiting illness.
This session will explore the relationship between loss, grief, bereavement and mental health; how we can manage grief in healthy ways; and how we can support others who are experiencing loss or grief

Wellbeing Webinar: Men's Mental Health
The rate of male suicide is alarmingly high: 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are by men. This session can explore how we can work towards a world where men take action to be mentally well, and are supported by those around them; and where men and boys are comfortable having conversations about the big things in life. This session is aimed at men - and at anyone who has men and boys that they care about, and live or work with.

Directors and Officers Insurance in Plain English
The webinar will explain the history of D&O and how the D&O marketplace is changing dramatically due to the economy. The sad fact is that many businesses will struggle badly over the next few years and lots of redundancies will have to be made. This will result in a sharp spike in both Directors and Officers and Employment Liability Practices claims. It should also be noted that many more directors are being sued in recent times individually and that the amount of HSE prosecutions have trebled against individual directors since 2015.
