Replacing the contents of your home could be very expensive. By purchasing Tenants Contents Insurance, your personal belongings are insured against events including:  

•    fire
•    theft
•    flooding or escape of water
•    accidental damage

Unlike some insurance policies, there are no excesses so you will not have to pay anything in the event of a claim.

You can also choose additional cover (for a premium) for:

  • personal belongings away from the home
  • wheelchairs and mobility scooters
  • hearing aids
