Casper's claims story
We all know life’s not predictable. That’s why it’s important to protect what’s most important to you – your family.
When Emma had Casper, it prompted her to take a look at her life insurance plan. After choosing Vitality, her financial adviser suggested that she took out Child Serious Illness Cover. Among its many benefits, like severity-based payments for when children fall ill, it also gave Emma extra cover towards any medical care bills or taking time off work to be with Casper.
