Travel Insurance for Motor Neurone Disease (MND)

What is motor neurone disease?

Motor neurone disease is a progressive neurological condition that affects the brain and nerves, leading to muscle weakness and loss of movement, which can affect people in different ways, depending on the severity of symptoms and how well it is managed. In the UK, around 5,000 people are living with the condition.

A trip abroad with motor neurone disease can take a little extra planning, but if your condition is stable and you’ve spoken with your doctor, there’s often no reason you can’t still enjoy a holiday abroad.

What travel insurance can cover if you have motor neurone disease:

• Emergency medical treatment and hospital care abroad
• Medical transport or repatriation back to the UK if required
• Cancellation cover if you are unable to travel due to your condition
• 24-hour medical assistance while you are abroad
