According to research, online searches for ‘emergency savings’ increased annually by 950%*. Meanwhile, enquiries about ‘financial protection’ rose by 130% and interest in ‘income protection’ went up by 30%.

The increase in searches suggests growing interest in how households could manage financially if their income stopped. Despite this, only 9% of UK adults have income protection in place.

It’s easy to think that you won’t ever need to rely on income protection cover. However, 18% of adults took at least four weeks off work in the six months to March 2026, either because of illness, injury or mental health reasons.

Nearly a quarter (23%) of this group relied on personal savings to support themselves, while 9% used a credit card or personal loan. Relying on savings or borrowing could reduce your financial buffer, particularly if an absence from work continues.

Income protection is there to provide financial support if you can no longer work due to illness or injury. If you’re worried about what would happen if your income stopped, talk to us.

Recent data has emphasised the importance of being transparent with your insurer. Otherwise, your protection claim could be denied*.

According to LV=, around 5% of protection claims were declined in 2025**. The main reasons for this were misrepresentation or non-disclosure. Policyholders commonly provided inaccurate information about their smoking status, alcohol consumption and medical history.

Leaving out a detail or telling a small ‘white lie’ when applying for protection insurance may seem insignificant. However, even minor inaccuracies could affect the validity of your cover and ultimately prevent you from receiving a payout when you need it most.

We understand that non-disclosure might not always be intentional. You may simply forget to mention a previous medical condition, particularly if it happened a long time ago. This is why it is important to take your time when completing an application and check your records carefully.

Don’t let inaccuracies be the reason you don’t receive a payout. If you already have protection in place, it is worth checking that the information you provided when applying is accurate and that your insurer has been informed of any changes in circumstances.

Younger adults are increasingly taking out life insurance and critical illness cover, according to recent research*.

Encouragingly, there is growing demand for stand-alone critical illness cover and joint policies among younger buyers, with more under-35s putting protection in place at an earlier stage of life. Research also suggests younger adults are increasingly combining life cover with critical illness protection as awareness of the importance of financial resilience grows.

Many younger adults have significant financial commitments, including rent, mortgages, and household bills, making financial protection just as important as it is later in life. We can help you explore protection options suited to your needs.

Buying a home is an exciting prospect, but it can also come with stresses. From property hunting through to moving day, there is a lot to consider during the process.

According to research from Barratt Homes, 60% of UK homeowners said that the homebuying process took a toll on their mental wellbeing*. An additional 35% experienced disrupted sleep, while 29% reported that their sense of financial security was impacted.

The survey found that legal or conveyancing delays were the biggest source of stress, with 43% of respondents identifying this as a challenge. More than a third (37%) said that they were stressed due to a deal falling through or nearly falling through, and 29% had challenges finding a suitable property.

If you too are feeling stressed by the homebuying process, here are four tips to help make the journey feel more manageable**:

4. Remember Why You’re Doing It:

You don’t have to navigate the homebuying process alone. We can help alleviate the stress and support you every step of the way.

Please note: Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

3. A Step at a Time:

It can be overwhelming to think about the whole homebuying process, so take it a step at a time rather than worrying about moving day before you’ve even placed an offer. That will allow you to focus on what you need to do right now, like attend a viewing or make a mortgage application. It can also help to store all important paperwork, emails and online documents in one place, so the information is easily accessible.

You don’t have to navigate the homebuying process alone. We can help alleviate the stress and support you every step of the way.

Please note: Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

2. Try Not to Cut Costs:

We understand that buying is a very expensive process. During this time, you might be cautious about your spending in other aspects of your life so that you can save money where you can.

However, it is important not to skip over certain parts of the homebuying process, as this could cost you more further down the line. For example, it may feel like getting a house survey is an avoidable expense, but this vital step highlights any issues with the property that could be costly to repair.

Identifying these defects at an early stage may prompt you to renegotiate the purchase price, budget for repairs or even change your mind about buying the property.

You don’t have to navigate the homebuying process alone. We can help alleviate the stress and support you every step of the way.

Please note: Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
