At Waddle, we help you choose a suitable protection package that's tailored to you and your family's needs.

The UK's statutory sick pay (SSP) system provides significantly less financial support compared to other European countries. While many nations offer substantial income replacement during illness, the UK's system falls short of providing adequate coverage for working families.

This gap in coverage highlights the importance of having proper income protection insurance to bridge the financial shortfall when you're unable to work due to illness or injury.
