Accident Only Income Protection in action

Unexpected accidents can happen anywhere - even while abroad.

When a tree surgeon suffered a broken jaw and concussion following an attack on holiday, his Accident Only Income Protection policy provided a £3,000 fracture payout within days.

That financial support helped cover his expenses while he recovered, giving him the reassurance to focus on healing before returning to work the following month.

If sickness cover feels out of reach, Accident Only Income Protection offers an affordable way to protect your income if an accident stops you working.

There are no medical questions, and it’s designed for people who want simple, budget-friendly cover.

Income protection that fits real life.

Accidents don’t have to be complex to be financially disruptive - even a simple fall can mean weeks away from work.

In this case, a warehouse operative's Friendly Shield Gold with sickness cover paid a £2,000 fracture benefit straight away, followed by £2,915 in income benefit once the short 14 day policy waiting period ended. In total, he received £4,915.

That extra money helped cover unexpected costs like travel and parking for hospital visits - expenses that can quickly add up after an accident. His policy enabled him to prioritise focusing on his recovery.

Friendly Shield is supporting self-employed workers

Accidents don’t just happen at work — they can happen at home too, and the impact on income can be immediate.

In this case, a self-employed carpenter’s cover paid a £3,000 lump sum fracture benefit within days after a fall at home caused neck and rib fractures. Alongside this, Accident Only Income Protection helped cover lost income while he recovered, with around £1,000 paid during his time off work.

That support helped ease financial pressure during recovery and showed how even short-term injuries can disrupt income, and how the right protection can make a real difference.
