Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need insurance if I'm planning events for friends?

Yes. Even small events carry liability. If a guest is injured, you could be sued. Insurance protects you and your personal assets.

What if a guest gets food poisoning from catered food?

Your liability depends on whether you selected the caterer. If you arranged poor quality catering and someone gets sick, you may be liable. Insurance covers this risk.

Am I covered for large events like festivals or weddings?

Yes. Large events are covered, but may need higher cover limits or special conditions. Discuss your typical event size with your insurer.

What if a contractor I hired causes injury or damage?

You may be liable for contractors you hire. Ensure they have their own insurance. Public liability covers your liability, but each contractor should be insured separately.
