Established in 1982, BGI offers a specialised swim school insurance program that was developed as a natural progression from the company’s already established baby yoga, baby massage and baby swimming insurance programs. “Babies grow up – as do their mums – creating a need for swimming lessons and swimming instructors,” said Jade Mayall at BGI. BGI found that the compulsory insurance included within swimming associations were limited and the question remained as to what happens to a teacher when he or she wants to turn a ‘part time activity’ into full-time business. “The options available to new teachers are restrictive and expensive when it comes to insurance – so we accepted the challenge to provide an alternative route to buying swim school insurance,” said Mayall. The company’s insurance options for swim schools range from policies for just the “sole trader” to cover for larger organisations.
