Fieldsports Membership

Sign up today to our annual Fieldsports membership with shooting insurance and legal expenses cover and get instant access to public liability, employers liability and legal expenses cover.

Our membership with shooting insurance gives you £5 million public liability cover, protecting you and those around you for a wide range of shooting activities. Plus, it also includes firearms legal expenses cover to help protect you from the erroneous actions of the police if you have your certificate revoked or your guns seized.

Over the last few years, we have seen this happening to an increasing number of shotgun and firearms certificate holders – the cost of challenging these cases in the courts is tens of thousands of pounds – it’s prohibitive for many of us. Make sure you are covered with our firearms legal expenses insurance.

All members, even those without insurance, can also access the F.A.B Fieldsports Advice Bureau and our in-house straight-talking lawyer Layla.

As a member you can also enjoy exclusive members-only content, special offers, weekly prize draws, and a box of Fieldsports Channel gear.

By joining us today you will be protecting yourself and those around you whilst supporting our work, flying the flag for Fieldsports.

FAQs

  • Are Air Rifles covered under this policy?

    Yes, all claims relating to shooting, regardless of the weapon, are covered but please note if the weapon is illegally held then the policy will not respond.

    The legal expenses insurance policy will cover professional expenses in relation to an appeal or representation to a police licensing authority, court of other mandatory body following the refusal to grant a certificate or to renew a certificate for an air gun, where such certificate is a requirement – for example in Scotland.

  • Are vets fees covered?

    The policy covers any third-party damage or injury caused directly by the activities of the Insured. i.e. if a dog is accidentally injured during a shoot and the organiser/participant of the shoot is found liable for that injury (negligence, for example) then the veterinary bills associated will be covered under the policy.

    Please note that this policy is not a pet policy but a policy to insure the liability to third parties caused by the individual Insured or, where applicable, their dogs.

     

  • Do I need to live in the UK to be covered by the insurance?

    Yes you must be a UK resident in order to be eligible for the insurance(s).

  • What is Public Liability insurance and what activities are covered?

    Public Liability insures the financial cost resulting from property damage or bodily injury to a third party as a direct result of the action of a Fieldsports Channel member whilst undertaking the activities listed below:

    1. Driven shooting
    2. Walked up shooting
    3. Rough shooting including associated beating and picking up activities
    4. Wildfowling
    5. Clay pigeon shooting
    6. Target shooting
    7. Stalking
    8. Deer stalking
    9. Vermin and pest control (excluding poisons)
    10. Fishing and angling
    11. Tracking wounded deer with dogs
    12. Controlled deer culling operated in accordance with current UK legislation
    13. Field trials
    14. Beating, loading and picking up
    15. Dog training
  • What is Employers’ Liability Insurance?

    Employees’ Liability insurance insures the financial liability of a Fieldsports Channel Member as a result of an employed individual being injured whilst undertaking an employed activity on behalf of a Fieldsports Channel Member. This would include but not limited to loading, beating, picking up and deer stalking.

  • What is the difference between the Fieldsports Channel membership with shooting insurance and other organisations insurance packages?

    The key difference is that Fieldsports Channel membership offers Legal Expenses cover. The policy also covers all gamekeeping and shooting related activities and not just recreational shooting activities – the policy covers professional persons including professional pest controllers, stalkers and coaches.

  • The police are taking a long time to grant/renew/vary my certificate but they have not contacted me to say why. Am I still eligible for Fieldsports legal cover? 

    The legal cover only applies to renewals and variations, not to the original grant of a shotgun or firearms certificate.
  • Will the legal expenses cover the costs of a revocation of a member’s certificate?

    Yes. The policy will cover your legal costs for an appeal following the suspending, revoking, curtailing, altering the terms of or refusing to renew your firearm or shotgun certificate; and the failure to grant a variation to your firearm or shotgun certificate. It will also cover the costs of your defence if subject to a criminal investigation relating to certain firearms offences.

    Please note this policy does not apply to the original grant of a shotgun or firearms certificate.

  • How do I make a Legal expenses claim?

    A claim can be made by contacting Peter Blackmore at Stubben Edge Markets on 07711 926110 email peter.blackmore@stubbenedge.com

    Details of how to make a claim directly to the insurer are in the policy wording document here https://www.fieldsportschannel.tv/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Policy_Summary_IPID.pdf but we would also advise any claimant to contact Layla at the Fieldsports Advice Bureau first. You will need to provide your unique subscription number and policy number.

  • Are groups or clubs insured?

    Yes, subject to the group, club or syndicate’s name and its members being registered with Fieldsports Channel then insurance for those individuals within the group, club or syndicate are insured. Each member enjoys a separate limit of £5,000,000 and the claim made under one syndicate member’s policy will not affect an unrelated circumstance of another syndicate member.
