Hi
We have decided to try and go on a trip to France in the summer between treatment but wondered if anyone has found travel insurance previously.
My better half has continuous palliative Chemo and has a 2 week break so we though we would use a ferry voucher to go to Brittany for a long weekend in the van.
We are in Plymouth so the journey would be easy.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Also looking at getting passports quick as we didn't think we would need them again.
Thanks in advance

Maybe worth speaking to the Force cancer charity in Exeter to see if they can point you in the right direction?

EHIC card is a must, they have healthcare in France. What do you want to additionally cover? Passport office is swamped by renewals are faster so start now. You might be able to explain the urgency to a person.

And go.

My mother was referred toย INSURE CANCER by her Macmillan nurse, although she eventually used WORLD FIRST

Replaced by GHIC card which does a similar job.
