Title: Public Liability for traders
Post by: holz306 on July 27, 2012, 09:44:11 am

Hi guys, my sister and i would like to get a trade stand for at the festival, but understand we need public liability insurance....she makes hand made tweed items, purses, bags etc.  If the insurance isn't too much i would like to add some cooked products to take up some space on her stand (maybe!) but i'm wondering where the best place to get insurance is, can anyone reccomend please?

I use these guys for soap making insurance, but they do lots of other craft insurance too  :thumbsup:

Food ones will be harder to get insurance for (and more costly)
