Home contents insurance

Why do you need it?

As a landlord we provide cover for the structure of your property, we do not provide cover for your home contents.

Contents insurance is designed to help protect your possessions. No matter how careful you are, there’s always a risk that your belongings could be broken, damaged or stolen so home contents insurance can help provide peace of mind.

It’s a good idea to consider what a home contents insurance policy could cover you for in order to help you make an informed decision on whether you need one.

To help you decide whether home contents insurance is right for you, Thistle Tenant Risks and Great Lakes Insurance UK Limited provide the My Home Contents Insurance Scheme, a Tenants Contents Insurance policy designed for customers living in social housing.

The My Home Contents Insurance Scheme can offer you insurance for the contents of your home including cover for items such as

  • furniture
  • carpets
  • curtains
  • clothes
  • bedding
  • electrical items
  • jewellery
  • pictures and ornaments.
