Life Insurance
We can't promise peace and quiet... but we can offer peace of mind
Protect the ones you love with award winning Life Insurance
We can’t promise parenting will be an easy ride, but knowing your little (ahem) angels are financially protected should the worst happen to you, can give you the reassurance you need to concentrate on the people who matter most.
And with our award-winning cover starting at just £5 per month, peace of mind may be a lot easier to achieve than a peaceful home.

Here's the need to know about life insurance so you have the full picture
- Available to UK residents aged 17 to 79
- You can choose the length to run between 5-45 years, but the policy must end before your 85th birthday
- You can't claim under a terminal illness in the last 12 months of the plan
- If you die, we'll normally pay the lump sum to your estate. Inheritance tax could apply to the part that's worth over £325,000 (tax years 2017/18 to 2020/21)
- We won’t pay a claim if you die as a result of intentionally taking your own life within the first 12 months of your policy
- If you stop paying your premiums, you won't get any money back and your cover may stop
