saving money & gaining peace of mind – why a protection review matters for families

When life changes, your financial protection should too. One of our long-term clients recently came to us for help with a new mortgage — but what we ended up helping them with went far beyond that.

Here’s how we saved them money, simplified their protection policies, and gave them greater peace of mind for the years ahead.

The Situation: A New Home for a Growing Family

We’ve worked with this couple for years. Now, with two young children and a move to a bigger home on the horizon, they came to us for help arranging a new mortgage.
As part of the process, we suggested taking a look at their existing protection policies — something many families overlook.

What We Found

While reviewing their insurance, we discovered something that’s more common than you’d think:

Mum had been paying £40 per month for a life insurance policy she no longer needed.
It had been in place for 4 years — costing nearly £2,000 in total — with no longer relevant benefits or structure.

What We Did

We took the opportunity to streamline and upgrade their entire protection setup:

• Designed a single family-wide protection plan

• Life insurance for both parents

• Critical illness cover

• Protection for both children

• Ensured the cover was relevant, affordable, and future-proof

• Arranged everything as part of the mortgage process — no extra admin or time burden for them

• Cancelled the outdated policy that was no longer needed

The Outcome

Mum no longer overpaying for unnecessary cover

Whole family protected under one streamlined policy

Greater cover, tailored to their new lifestyle and mortgage

No fee for the review or policy updates

Peace of mind as they move into their next chapter

Why This Matters

Many people think of insurance as a one-and-done task — but life changes, and your protection needs to keep up.

• “Am I double paying?”

• “Does this cover what I think it does?”

• “Do I even need this policy anymore?”

These are the questions we help families answer every single day.
