What to Consider When Applying for Life Insurance with Diabetes

Living with diabetes does not automatically prevent you from taking out life insurance. Many people with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are accepted for cover each year, although the application process may involve more health questions than a standard application.

They may consider the type of diabetes you have, how long ago you were diagnosed, your recent blood glucose readings, your treatment and your general health. Understanding this process can help you prepare and avoid some of the common problems that cause applications to be...

How many sports can claim to be to be for all the family? Skiing is one of the best of them! Not only because we are all together (children, parents, grandparents) but also because when we play, we discover so much that we create some of the best memories ever.

Memories that are so strong that, when the time will come, our children will bring their own children to the mountains to share with them the incredible experience of the snow world.

Some of you already know, some of you don’t. Some of you are maybe anxious to bring your little ones to the cold and to the snow. Some...

Offered the opportunity by Exeter Phoenix to take part in a new one-day workshop at the lively arts centre and write about it for The Exeter Daily , I agreed with alacrity. I signed up for 'Experimental Drawing' thinking it might give my drawing practice the kick-start it needed.

The group of ten who gathered on Monday morning came with widely differing experience and expectations. ‘Experimental’ could sound intimidating, but at least one participant interpreted it as open to those with little technical expertise.
