+xHi everyone, I posted this question onto another thread by mistake so I'm going to get it right this time! I have found out only today that having a restraining order means I cannot be given home and contents insurance cover. I would be grateful for any advice or experience from other forum members about getting around this problem or any recommendations for insurance providers who are prepared to issue cover. Acknowledging this will probably cost a few bob more. Many thanks Where did you get the idea that you can't get home and contents insurance cover just because you have a restraining order? Maybe your insurer won't offer you cover, but that's not the same as having insurance refused, it just means that they don't have a product that fits your circumstances. A bit like Sheila's Wheels not insuring men all those years ago. Anyway, Unlock has a list of insurers who can help people with unspent convictions here, so take a look. Also, there are some mainstream motor insurers who are only interested in motoring convictions, so if you need motor insurance, try their list here.

Robert Lightfoot, former head of NASA, said it succinctly in his parting speech in April 2018: Protecting against risk and being safe are not the same thing ... [W]e must move from risk management to risk leadership. From a risk management perspective, the safest place to be is on the ground. From a risk leadership perspective, I believe thats the worst place [we] can be.
