Case study: Insurance

 

Lara is 27 years old. She has recently moved into a new flat with her partner Mathilde and their Shih-Tzu puppy, Mot. Lara works in Caernarfon and drives to work in Bangor, but Mathilde works closer to home and can cycle to work. Lara and Mathilde love to travel and have just booked a holiday to Italy next year.

Have a look at Admiral's website and make a note of the insurance products that might be suitable for Lara and Mathilde.
