Holiday Insurance
Can anyone tell me whether you need to delcare KC on holiday insurance. I am presuming that you do as you need to delare any other medical conditions but if I am wrong please let me know, as my son is going on holiday with his dad and I will need to tell that he needs to declare.

Yes - declare it.
The worst they will do is say they won't cover it.
If you don't declare it, they may turn round and say that as you failed to declare an existing condition they won't pay out on *anything8.
A good company will list it aas covered for emergencies abroad once declared.
(AIUI, holiday insurance covers emergencies abroad, not routine attention to ongoing conditions.)
I've twice had KC listed and covered on Boots gap year (sic) travel insurance - no problem, not even any extra premium.
Good luck.
