Welsh Gymnastics Group Personal Accident

Personal Accident insurance provides a fixed benefit payment if you sustain a specific injury whilst taking part in a recognised gymnastic activity, in a recognised environment, anywhere in the world.

The Personal Accident insurance is a 'non-fault' benefit which means insured members will receive the appropriate payment regardless of the cause of the accident, with no need to resort to litigation or prove negligence first.
