Group life insurance
Offering group life cover shows your employees that you value more than just their work, you value their wellbeing and the security of those they care about. We help you put the right scheme in place with clarity, compliance and long-term support.
Employee protection that builds loyalty and peace of mind
Group life insurance (sometimes called death-in-service benefit) provides a tax-free lump sum to an employee’s family or nominated beneficiaries if they pass away while employed. It’s a simple yet powerful way to enhance your employee benefits package, and demonstrate your commitment to caring for your people.
At Dartington Wealth Management, we help businesses of all sizes design and manage group life insurance schemes that are cost-effective, compliant and genuinely valued by staff.
What our group life service includes
Our service includes:
- Scheme design tailored to your workforce and budget
- Advice on appropriate cover levels and eligibility rules
- Provider selection and cost comparison from the full market
- Policy set-up, trust arrangement and HMRC registration
- Ongoing administration support and scheme governance
- Communication materials to help employees understand their benefits

How group life cover supports your business
We help you:
- Align your cover with broader business and HR strategies
- Manage scheme costs while maintaining meaningful benefits
- Ensure legal and tax compliance through an appropriate scheme setup
- Handle claims and trustee responsibilities when the time comes
- Integrate group life with other employee benefits, such as pensions or medical cover

What to expect when you work with us
We begin with a conversation about your business, your team, and what you hope to achieve with the scheme. From there, we assess your options and recommend the most suitable structure and provider for your needs.
Once your group life insurance is in place, we’ll support you with annual reviews, employee communications, and any claims or governance needs that arise. We’ll also ensure the scheme remains fit for purpose as your business evolves.
