Hi Julie, welcome to the forum x
I’ve used it’s so easy travel insurance to cover my husband for our recent trips. They’ve been very helpful. X

Julie G Hi welcome to the forum. Sorry for your diagnosis. It’s my husband who has MND, we are also from Cheshire and under the care of Walton. We have no complaints and feel very supported by them. You will find the forum informative, kind, humorous and you can ask anything.xx

Julie G sorry to hear your diagnosis but lots of support here. Ive been under Walton for 11 years, there is a multidisciplinary team and lots of assistance available as and when you need or want it. A previous Consultant there gave me the advice that, in their long experience, people with Mnd who remained positive did much better.
I've used World First holiday insurance, no problem getting annual cover for Mnd, including worldwide travel. Xx

A warm welcome to the forum Julie G . I am so sorry for your diagnosis. It's such a shock and I found the early days overwhelming.

We have an annual travel insurance policy with All clear although ours only covers European travel. They are really helpful.

Take care of yourself and do post if you have any questions, when you are ready. The forum is a good place for understanding and support.

Love Debbie x
