CORE Benefits

Not all campaign insurance is equal

Cheaper policies often exclude the activities campaigns actually run. CORE Benefits has negotiated exclusive cover through Bruce Chiene Insurance Brokers, built around what campaigns do.

The Problem

Standard insurance doesn’t cover campaigns

Most community campaigns discover the gap in their cover at exactly the wrong moment. These are the situations we built this policy to address.

A resident trips over a sign at your street stall and blames the campaign.

A venue won’t let you book a hall without proof of public liability cover.

A volunteer is injured setting up for a door knocking day.

Your standard policy turns out not to cover political campaign activity at all.
