Wayforward insurance for ex offenders offering help to those most at need.

By the time you have kindly read this information, please remember another ex-offender will have been released. If we only help that one person, our good efforts are not wasted. And the good work we are striving to achieve will come to fruition, that one day all insurers will welcome ex offenders at standard rates  

I would like to highlight the forgotten problems ex offenders face, and would like to introduce our unique range of insurance products for ex-offenders under our WAYFORWARD range. The average person is bombarded by insurers hungry for their business. It is so easy to overlook the real needs of the ex-offender and the difficult task of finding insurance while fully disclosing convictions.

From the start, the ex-offender often cannot get a bank account to have their salary or benefits paid into nor a mortgage

Often the ex-offender will go uninsured and perhaps ultimately re-offend. Or they will often misinform insurers of their convictions and hope for the best. Sadly, when a claim occurs the insurer will have every right to void the policy and can press for a charge of attempted fraud, which will lead to the person returning to prison.

Whilst in prison, the ex-offender has often gained skills for gainful employment on the outside. On release, they will not be able to start this employment as they cannot legally obtain cover for their vehicle to get to work nor can they obtain liability/business insurance to start their own business. All resources put into the prison training process are therefore wasted. As will your own resources and efforts

Similarly, should the ex-offender return or move in with friends or family, normal household insurance will be invalid. Should they wish to take a holiday or arrange the financial protection of an accident or sickness policy they will be denied cover.

I have arranged this facility at the request and support from our trade association The British Insurers Brokers Association along with ex offender charities. We only use Lloyd’s underwriters and UK insurers.
