Council home contents insurance

Let’s protect what makes your place a home.

We have teamed up with Royal & Sun Alliance insurance company to provide low-cost contents insurance specifically for North West Leicestershire District Council residents.

You have a home full of things that you need and love – clothes, TV, kitchen appliances, keepsakes, furniture, and gadgets. Surely, if stuff’s worth owning, then it’s worth protecting.

As your landlord, we insure the building and anything we provide, but we don’t cover your home’s contents and belongings. Ask yourself, would you need help with the cost of putting things right after a kitchen fire, a washing machine flood, or a break in? It could get pretty pricey. But don’t worry – tenants contents insurance financially protects your home’s contents. 

Prices start from as little as 45p per week, £1.39 per month, or £16.84 a year** for contents insurance.

**Prices shown are for £4,000 of contents insurance cover, based on postcode area and include a transaction fee. They exclude accidental damage and optional covers. The price you pay will depend on your individual circumstances, postcode and cover chosen.What you need to know about RSA’s tenants contents insurance
