Stag Dos should check insurance covers dangerous activities

Grooms gearing up for an adventurous stag do should make sure that they are insured for dangerous activities, one expert has advised.
According to specialist in stag and hen weekends Designaventure, stag dos need to watch out for clauses which could leave them exempt from cover if they undertake certain types of activities. Project manager of Designaventure, Anna Makin Made, said: "We advise everyone to take out their own insurance and check that they are covered for the activities that they’re doing." She added that clauses can sometimes be so specific as to say that machine gun shooting is not allowed, for example, which could leave the groom and his friends in trouble if an accident were to occur.
Research carried out by Halifax last year found that 8.6 million Brits took a single sex holiday in 2006 and 25 per cent of those were stag or hen parties. Furthermore, the study revealed that while 26 per cent of men had been on a lads break in the past 12 months, while only 19 per cent of women had done the same.
