BASC, but I shoot. I dont need insurance for ferreting tbh. If SACS cover for ferreting, I would use them as they cover shooting too. Quote the hunting life and they give a discount at the moment (I know its between certain times of the year. I would have thought one of the SAC members could answer).

? Sacs mean what

[Bunny Boiler 177]

Scottish Association for Conservation and Shooting. Although its scottish, you dont have to be scottish. Its a world wide company, just based in Scotland.

£18.00 a year is a bargain as it will cover you for all the things that can go wrong. The railway insurance will cover you for the correct insurance to be on there property ie if you caused the railway bank to

collapse from digging a ferret out just think of the cost to you if you had to pay to put it back etc etc etc ( £18.00 costs you more for a round of drinks )

Yeah, but the railway insurance is only going to cover him for railways. If he pays the extra 4 quid or whatever it is, he's covered everywhere and can use that to gain permission (I know I do!).

 

I wouldnt bother with insurance for ferreting but would make an exception for railways as they can be pretty dangerous. Public liability etc.

the railway runs through my permission, and it needs doing as farmers keeps asking. and railway says i need insurance. SACS says 35 quid for a year, and i can use it anywhere so guess that the insurance for me. thanks for your help

I'm with SACS and if definitely helps gaining permission. Just got permission on a fisheries and mentioning that I have got 3rd party liability insurance was definitely the persuader.

[paulus 26]

if you quote the "hunting life club" when joining SACS this month you will get it at a discounted rate of 26 or 27 quid

[Joe67 239]

used sacs before, would again, THL discount is a good idea

Aye sacs with the thl membership is only £26 and it was just renewed on the first of January
