Supporting you as you support Ukrainian refugees
As the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine unfolds, we know that many people are looking to help in any way they can. We’re here to support you by offering guidance on how plans to assist Ukrainian refugees might affect existing insurance covers.
Homeowners
Homeowners across the UK are offering their homes to Ukrainian refugees. In these exceptional circumstances, it may be that they are viewed as family members on your household insurance cover to keep things simple. However, it is important that you check the potential implications of this with your insurer, as some accidental damage, for example, may not be covered.
Commercial vehicle cover
If you’re using your commercial vehicle to transport goods and aid, you’ll need to double check that your activity is covered by your motor or commercial fleet insurance. You may, for example, be driving more miles than your policy assumes and be transporting different items. These details can make all the difference to the insurance cover you have, so it’s important to review your cover.
Buildings insurance
There are a range of community buildings, for example schools, opening their doors to offer food and shelter to refugees. If you are responsible for the building, it is important to contact your insurer to discuss risk levels to ensure your policy remains suitable.
