What's Included

Bushcraft Insurance

Whether you're learning essential outdoor skills, attending a bushcraft course or enjoying time in the countryside, having the right bushcraft insurance in place can provide valuable protection and peace of mind. Country Cover Club Membership is designed for individuals taking part in a wide range of legal bushcraft activities, providing specialist cover and Member Benefits tailored to those who enjoy outdoor survival, wilderness skills and nature-based pursuits.
Bushcraft is becoming increasingly popular as a hobby or a one-off activity hosted by experienced providers. There are a wide variety of activities that may be undertaken, many of which have an element of risk associated with them. C³ Membership ensures that you have the right cover in the event of an accident.

Limit of Indemnity: £12,000,000 (£12 million) in any one occurrence.

Indemnity is provided in respect of claims made against any C³ Member for compensation and costs and expenses (incurred with consent) as a result of:

  • accidental bodily injury;
  • accidental property damage; or
  • obstruction, loss of amenities, trespass, nuisance or interference with any right of way, light, air or water:

caused by an event occurring during participation in an Insured Activity.

Limit of Indemnity: £12,000,000 (£12 million) in the aggregate.

Indemnity is provided in respect of claims made against any C³ Member for compensation and costs and expenses (incurred with consent), as a result of:

  • the sale or distribution of shot or hunted game, to family, friends or local retailers in accordance with the Food Standards Agency Wild Game Guide
  • the sale or distribution of collected honey, beeswax and/or other bee products to family, friends or local retailers in accordance with The Honey (England) Regulations 2015

up to a total value of £5,000 per annum and, where applicable, declared to HMRC, during the period of Membership. All game meat and honey products must be the result of recreational shooting, hunting and beekeeping activities only.

Standard Capital Benefit: £10,000

If, during the Membership period, a C³ Member suffers an accidental bodily injury whilst engaged in an Insured Activity and such activity is the sole, direct and independent cause of the injury, which occasions disablement and/or medical treatment within 12 calendar months of the accident, then we shall pay the benefits, up to £10,000, as stated in the Summary of Insurance.

Enhanced Personal Accident Insurance of £50,000 may be purchased in conjunction with any C³ Standard Membership for an additional £9.95.

If you are attending a bushcraft course or experience operated by a qualified bushcraft instructor, you do not need to have a qualification for the C³ Master Policies to apply. However, if you wish to carry out bushcraft activities outside of a controlled instructional environment, you will need to have attended an authorised course with a Qualified Bushcraft Instructor and have been assessed and certified as being competent to carry out Bushcraft activities.

Standard C³ Membership provides cover for recreational bushcraft activities. However, we recognise that many of our Members also use their skills part time in a semi-professional capacity. To make sure these Members have adequate cover for any professional services they undertake, we have negotiated a tailor-made Professional Activities Insurance extension. This includes:

  • £12 million Public Liability Cover (for activities in a professional capacity)
  • £25,000 Professional Indemnity Insurance cover

Cover can be provided for qualified bushcraft instructors taking groups with an instructor/student ratio of 1 to 6 for juniors and 1 to 12 for adults and is limited to activities with an annual turnover of up to £10,000. The cover provided is not suitable to provide indemnity for full-time occupations or to replace a full business insurance policy.

At Country Cover Club our aim is to help Members obtain the best value bushcraft insurance possible. Standard Annual Membership costs just £35.95 and every Member is covered for:

  • £12 million Public Liability Insurance
  • £12 million Products Liability Insurance
  • £10,000 Personal Accident Insurance (including £725 Hospitalisation Benefit, £500 Dental / Optical Cover and £500 Funeral Expenses Cover)

We also offer short term Membership from £19.95 and optional extras such as Travel Extensions, Enhanced Personal Accident cover and Loss of Income cover so that you only pay for what you need. To become a C³ Member, please complete the application form on the Buy Now page.

Members do not have a direct 'Insured to Insurer/Underwriter' relationship with the underwriters of C³'s Master Policies. Claims must be made through C³, using current claim procedures, and will be processed under policies in effect on the date of the occurrence, as per policies T's and C's.
