Does anyone have recommendations for travel insurance for a Stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis for trekking and climbing in the Sinai Desert? My current travel insurance provider has declined to renew my policy following my recent diagnosis.

"All Clear" advertise madly on afternoon television, Moneysupermarket" have many suggestions, you may well find something suitable.

Thanks. All Clear did at least give me a quote, but at £4k for the premium, I think my travelling days might be over.

Your nearest Maggie's Centre (https://www.maggies.org) will be able to provide you with a list of all insurers which provide travel cover for people with a cancer diagnosis.

There is also a relevant forum on https://community.macmillan.org.uk/, namely https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer_experiences/travel-insurance-foru...

One company which seems to get recommended a bit is: https://www.insurancewith.com/

Many thanks. I've used the Maggie's Centre list and am trawling ...

Thanks. I'll have a look.

Yes, I've just tried them and their initial quote is much more reasonable.
