Welcome to the Spring 2016 issue of In Touch !

Spring is here and, with its arrival, people?s thoughts start to move towards the summer and the holidays they have planned. Here are a variety of dif ferent f il lers that give some important messages about properly preparing for summer getaways.Going on holiday abroad without travel insurance is a risky move and these 2 Fillers show some of the dangers of not buying it.The f irst, OPTIONS, shows how a trip of a lifetime can soon turn sour without adequate medical insurance as a couple?s dream holiday turns into a nightmare.Travelling abroad can cost thousands for uninsured travellers if a trip goes wrong. The second Filler, ADDS UP, shows how costs can quickly escalate after an accident. No travel insurance ? can you afford it?

Do you have t r avel insur ance?

EHIC is completely free and without one you could get stung for medical costs if treated in a public hospital in Europe. A European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) covers all or most of the cost of a medical emergency during temporary stays in other European Economic Area countries. They?re available free of charge, but need to be renewed every 5 years.This Filler, PACKING, shows two women getting ready for their holiday. One has an EHIC, and a neat l itt le suitcase, the other has forgotten to renew her EHIC card? .The Filler comically sets a scene of what she might have to pack without having an EHIC card - crutches, heart monitor, blood? even a real-life doctor! Order from us and help us remind travellers to take out their free EHIC card today!

Unfortunately bikers don?t get these warnings in the real world.This Department for Transport Filler shows exciting scenes of a motorcyclist on country roads.

THE BRITISH EMBASSY OFFERS A HAND, NOT A HAND OUT

The Foreign and Commonwealth Off ice have released an upbeat f ilm to remind mainly young travellers abroad, that if they get in trouble abroad, the consul will give you a hand? but not a hand out.

As we head into summer, the Filler DANNY gives good advice on what to do if you get into trouble on your overseas holiday. It tells the story of hapless Danny, a likeable young tearaway who gets into a bar brawl as soon as he gets on his holiday in the sun.As the Filler progresses, so the holiday unfolds into more drama? a stolen passport and wallet, a scooter accident... order from us now!

TRAVEL ADVICE "DANNY" CBO/PSFF116/060

If you're planning spring or summer holiday breaks, it 's easy to forget essentials l ike travel insurance, and remembering to prepare things like vaccinations and knowing the local do's and don'ts.

The Filler CHECK IN is a tongue in cheek reminder that we're not invincible, and a reminder to check these basics even if staying with family.

The comedy check-in girl asks our hapless young traveller a series of questions, leaving him f labbergasted.

The message is clear, check it all out before you check in !
