We offer a household contents insurance scheme to all
Council tenants that have a clear rent account.
- The premium is paid weekly as part of your rent
charges.
- There is no excess.
If you choose to insure your home under our scheme, we will
include the premium on your rent card. The charge will depend on
the value of the items you insure and whether you are over 60. As
with heating and hot water, insurance charges are not covered by
Housing Benefit. If you are interested in applying for home
contents insurance under our scheme, you can get an application
form from any Local Service Centre.
This leaflet outlines the scheme and policy in full.
