Consider Contents Insurance This Christmas
Home Contents insurance helps protect personal belongings, so if a property is damaged by things like flood or fire, the insurance helps cover the cost to repair or replace any broken, damaged or stolen items.
As your landlord, New Gorbals Housing Association is responsible for insuring the building you live in, but not the contents within it. Things like curtains, carpets and electrical appliances all fall under contents.
In winter, thinks like burst pipes are more common as the temperature drops. Homes may also pose a higher fire risk over the festive period, with additional lights and decorations at this time of year. That’s why it’s important to make sure your belongings are covered in case of any accidents.
