Public liability and shoot cancellation insurance
Driven game shooting is a dangerous sport and although I try to assess and avoid risks, accidents may happen. When
you join the shooting field you need to have the confidence that the Shoot, your fellow guns and yourself are adequately
insured in the event of accident or injury.

With the ever increasing cost of litigation it is now necessary to have a minimum indemnity cover of £10 Million third
party public and personal liability insurance. I confirm that The Ripley Castle Shoot has this level of cover, however in
the event of a claim for an accident or injury caused by a member or guest, the first port of call will be on the persons
own insurance.

I must therefore insist that anyone shooting with us on any area under the management of The Ripley Castle
Shoot should ensure that themselves and their guests have the required minimum cover of £10 Million third party,
public and personal liability insurance in place well in advance of joining a shoot day and carry proof of this on
all shoot days.

As in the past this cover is available through GunsOnPegs for only £49 per annum or Membership of BASC, The
Countryside Alliance or similar organisations. Please call GunsOnPegs on 0207 491 1363 to take out public liability
insurance.

However we now have available a new insurance package which not only offers similar cover to Membership of shooting
organisations but just as importantly with our increasingly unpredictable weather, insurance against the loss of shoot days
due to adverse weather conditions.

triPle barrelled cover from GunsOnPegs is a must for everyone involved with driven shooting as it
insures:

• You as an individual, with £10 million Public liability, £55k personal accident cover and legal liability cover

• Your guns, so your gun will be covered in the event of loss, theft or damage.

• All of your purchased shoot days. So in the event of cancellation due to either foul weather, sickness, an
accident, travel disruption, bereavement your costs are covered, even including the costs of your accommodation!

All this is available from only £133.26 per annum (including 9.5% IPT), which insures up to £2000 worth of claims for
your gun damage/loss and £1000 worth of claims for shoot days/accommodation. Even more comprehensive levels of
cover are available for those wanting to insure their gun up to and over £100,000 and their shoot days up to an £25,000
claim limit, with varying levels and prices in between (for further details and a quotation please contact GunsOnPegs on
0207 491 1363).

In the unfortunate event that you are unable to attend one of your days due to personal sickness, bereavement or a day is
cancelled due to adverse weather conditions, the cancellation insurance will allow you to claim your money back simply
and easily and enables you to reschedule your day for another time.

If you have ever purchased cancellation insurance before, you’ll know it can be quite expensive relative to the cost of
the day, especially as it has to be purchased separately for each of your days shooting. Triple Barrelled Cover is the most
affordable route for complete peace of mind for any game shot and this is still the case even if you are a member of one
of the organisations offering public liability insurance within their membership.

There is also a significant benefit from insuring your guns under this policy. A number of people insure their guns via their
house insurance policy, and then find that a modest claim for a gun fault can have a disproportionate effect on the costs
of their home policy in future years, so a separate policy makes good sense. Worst still, GunsOnPegs have found that a
number of home insurance policies do not even cover the gun against theft or damage outside the home.
