Protection – Life Cover, Critical Illness Cover, Income Protection

Buying a home and getting a mortgage is one of, if not the biggest financial commitment most of us will ever make. So, while we may not like to think about it, it’s important to consider how to protect our families, home, and the lifestyle we’ve worked so hard for.

Thousands of people across the UK aren’t insured enough to do this should they pass away or become ill.

In 2018, Compare the Market found just 30% of UK adults had life insurance cover (8.1m), versus 11.1m mortgaged properties in the UK.
