Can my child’s belongings be covered when they are away at university?

Yes. Contents belonging to a member of your family who is in full-time education may be covered while they are living and studying away from home at university in the UK.

Cover is subject to the terms, limits and exclusions shown in your policy schedule. Before your child moves away, it is worth checking that the value of the belongings they are taking is within your contents and single-item limits.
