Could you give us a bit of an insight on whether those numbers are borne out in your experience with Cornish Mutual? Well,
7:14
the simple answer is yes, they are.
7:16
And as a claims handler, unfortunately, myself and my colleagues, we hear when things go wrong on a farm.
7:23
You know, regularly we hear about accidents on farms where employees or visitors to the farm have been injured.
7:30
And those injuries can range from...
7:33
Something relatively minor, lacerations, bruises, right up to catastrophic injuries, severe spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, life-changing injuries.
7:46
Thankfully, we don't see many deaths as an insurer, but certainly they do happen and we'll do what we can to assist.
