ins ins question here...

One of my colleagues has a fledgling sideline business that she is having trouble insuring. She is a hairdresser by trade and with her husband has purchased an old caravan which they have re-furbished so she can not only work from home but mainly travel to festivals etc giving beauty treatments/make up/ eye lashes etc.

Great business idea but it seems nobody can point her in the right direction as to who can or will offer insurance to cover the business. She currently has big interest from two festivals but they wont even consider her unless she has some form of cover for the transport element of it, accidents/breakdown/fire etc

anyone have an idea?

Good call about a broker. If she wants professional indemnity insurance it is worth taking a look at Hiscox I used them when I had my own business they seem to cater for small businesses.
