Home buildings and contents insurance

Comprehensive insurance cover for total peace of mind

Insurance brings peace of mind, but for people with epilepsy and their families finding quality insurance products at sensible prices has traditionally been very difficult and in some cases impossible. Our home insurance has been sourced by our insurance broker Tysers (authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority Ref. No. 308648) to help people with epilepsy and their families protect their property.

Accidents can occur at anytime regardless of how many preventative measures you take - this is something people with epilepsy can relate to. Epilepsy Action has been able to arrange this comprehensive household policy just in case that unforeseen event should occur. The policy has been designed to cover not just the buildings and contents of your home (cover can be arranged for just buildings or contents or combined to qualify for a further discount), but also your jewellery and personal possessions anywhere in the world. The policy covers such events as fire, theft, storms and floods and is comparable with all the leading household policies. The cost of your cover will depend on where you live, as the rating is based on your postcode.

Furthermore, insurers will make a £10.00 donation to Epilepsy Action for every policy taken up.

• Easy payment options
