Professional Indemnity Insurance for Scouts 0345 040 7703 scouts@unityins.co.uk Professional Indemnity (PI) or Professional Liability insurance provides protection against a claim made by a third party for an error, omission or alleged breach of professional duty resulting in a loss. A professional duty would be when a Scout Group provides a service to others, often for a fee, where they are acting as experts passing knowledge on. If someone alleges that the Scout Group provided advice incorrectly, resulting in a financial loss caused from professional negligence, the Scout Group could find themselves facing a claim.
