05/05/2026

If you’re self-employed you may worry about what happens to your income if illness or injury stops you from working, especially with no statutory sick pay to keep you afloat.

You are not alone. There are 4.37 million self-employed workers in the UK, but research from LV= suggests only 6% have income protection insurance in place. That's a big gap between risk and protection.

Our new guide explains how income protection works if you are self-employed, why shorter deferment periods can help when there's no sick pay to bridge the gap, and what features and options may appeal the most.

Whether you're a freelancer, contractor or running your own business, it's worth understanding how a regular monthly payment could keep your mortgage paid and your business ticking over while you recover.

With NHS waiting times still a concern you may be thinking about using your pension to access funds to pay for private surgery or health treatment. While it could be an option there are important factors to think about first.

Our latest guide covers some of the key considerations, such as:

❓How pension withdrawals are taxed
❓How access depends on your pension type
❓The potential impact on your long-term retirement income
❓Why health insurance could be a better alternative

Accessing your pension is easier than ever, but large withdrawals can come with significant tax bills and reduce your future financial security in retirement.
