Do I Need To Take Out Insurance For My Home And Belongings?
We strongly advise you to take out a home contents insurance policy. This is to insure your personal belongings, furniture, carpets and decorations against damage or loss due to water, fire or burglary.
Christian Action's insurance policy does not cover your belongings if they are lost or damaged.
Taking out your own insurance will also provide you with cover if you are held responsible for damage caused to your home, or a neighbour's home, or belongings (for example, if you let your bath overflow or if you accidentally hammer a nail through a central-heating pipe).
My Home Contents Insurance
The National Housing Federation, in conjunction with Jardine Lloyd Thompson Tenant Risks, offers an affordable home contents insurance scheme called My Home Contents Insurance. For further details on the scheme, download a leaflet here or telephone 0845 337 2463.
