AIM Risk Services are proud to be a trusted insurance partner to BASC for many years, providing a range of insurance products for members outside of the insurance cover included as part of your BASC membership. A specialist insurance broker, Aim Risk services provide insurance solutions to a range of businesses and individuals. Working closely with select partners, we get to fully understand their needs to develop solutions that are not only right for the here and now but can also be adapted as their requirements change.

If you hire yourself out as a loader, coach, pest controller, stalker/deer manager etc. you are not insured under the BASC insurance policy and you will need to make your own arrangements.
