Welcoming refugees
If you’ve stepped up to welcome a refugee into your home, we’ll treat them as family. That means that for the duration of the “Homes for Ukraine” initiative, taking in a refugee will not alter your home insurance policy and you don’t need to notify us that you’ve taken a refugee in. They’ll simply be treated in the same way we’d view any family members within your household.
