Three ways to protect your future

Different policies for different risks. Here’s what each one does.

Essential if you have a mortgage

Life insurance

Pays out a lump sum to your loved ones if you die during the policy term. Ensures your mortgage gets paid off and your family stays in their home.

Pay off outstanding mortgage
Replace lost income for your family
Cover childcare and education costs
Ideal for: Anyone with a mortgage, dependents, or financial responsibilities to others.

Critical illness cover

Pays a tax-free lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer, heart attack, or stroke. Money when you need it most.

Covers major illnesses (cancer, stroke, etc.)
Tax-free lump sum payment
Use the money however you need
Ideal for: Anyone who wants financial security if they become seriously ill but survive.

Income protection

Replaces a portion of your income if you can’t work due to illness or injury. Keeps paying your bills when you can’t earn.

Monthly payments while you recover
Covers any illness or injury
Can pay until you return to work or retire
Ideal for: Self-employed, main earners, or anyone whose family depends on their income.

Life doesn’t always go to plan

Nobody likes thinking about the worst. But the right protection means your family stays secure, no matter what happens.

New mortgage or remortgage?

If you’re increasing your borrowing, your existing cover might not be enough. Review your protection whenever your mortgage changes.

Family depending on you?

If your income stopped tomorrow, could your family pay the mortgage? Life insurance ensures they’re not left struggling.

What if you got seriously ill?

1 in 2 people will get cancer in their lifetime. Critical illness cover pays a lump sum so you can focus on recovery, not bills.

Self-employed or limited sick pay?

No work = no income. Income protection pays your bills if illness or injury stops you earning—until you’re back on your feet.

Getting protected is simple

No complicated forms. No confusing jargon. Just the right cover for you.

Protection questions, answered

Common questions about life insurance and protection.

Do I really need protection if I have a mortgage?

If something happened to you, could your family keep paying the mortgage? Life insurance ensures the mortgage gets paid off, keeping your family in their home. It’s not compulsory, but most people with dependents or a mortgage consider it essential peace of mind.

What’s the difference between life insurance and critical illness?

Life insurance pays out when you die. Critical illness pays out if you’re diagnosed with a serious illness (like cancer or heart attack) but survive. Many people have both—life insurance protects your family after death, critical illness protects you while you’re alive but unable to work.

How much cover do I need?

At minimum, enough to pay off your mortgage. Many people also add an amount to replace income for several years, cover childcare costs, or pay for education. We’ll help you work out the right figure based on your specific situation—there’s no one-size-fits-all answer.

Is income protection worth it?

If your income stopped tomorrow due to illness or injury, how long could you manage? Statutory Sick Pay is only £109.40/week. Income protection replaces up to 60% of your income until you’re back at work or retire. It’s especially valuable if you’re self-employed or have limited sick pay.

Can I get cover if I have health issues?

Usually yes, though it depends on the condition. Some health issues mean higher premiums or certain conditions being excluded. Others have no impact at all. We work with many insurers and can often find cover even when others have said no. Be honest about your health—non-disclosure can void your policy.
