Contents insurance

It is important that you have contents insurance for your home.

Contents insurance protects your home and your belongings against any damage or theft. Unexpected incidents can happen, and by having insurance you will minimise the costs that you could face if things go wrong.

Many residents believe that their furniture, belongings and decorations are automatically insured against fire, theft, vandalism or water damage. Unfortunately, this is not the case. You are responsible for arranging suitable contents insurance for your home.

There are many insurance schemes for you to choose from, including the National Housing Federation’s (NHF) ‘My Home Contents Insurance Scheme’. Please contact us for more details.
