🚀 2nd February is National Wear Red Day, where people across the country don the colour red to raise awareness and spread knowledge about heart disease and stroke, particularly in women.
Today, Brierie Bee and I will be sporting red t shirts 🔴 and donating 💷 today to show our support and make a positive impact to the charity Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland 🏴.
Donate - Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland (chss.org.uk)
According to the British Heart Foundation
🕒Every 3 minutes someone dies from a heart or circulatory disease.
💝7.6million people are living with heart and circulatory diseases.
👀I encourage everyone to investigate into their own provisions for critical illness cover.
💡What is Critical Illness?
Critical illness cover gives you financial protection against certain illnesses and conditions including cancer, heart attack, stroke and medical conditions of a specific severity. The cover provides a tax free lump sum cash payment which can be used to help you and your family. For example, it could help you pay off your mortgage, pay for treatment to help you recover or pay your household bills.
❌A common misconception is insurers don’t pay out on claims.
✅The Association of British Insurers (ABI) published critical illness claims on 30th May 2023 for 2022, they are:
🆕New claims paid = 19,218
☝️Percentage new claims paid = 91.6%
😳Total value for all claims paid = £1.274 billion
💷Average value of claim paid = £66,296
👩 👨 The average age of the person insured that filed a critical illness claim is 49
🗣️If you don’t have critical illness cover or have a policy but don’t know what its covered, take control and to seek help by speaking to a qualified financial planner.
