Our team has put together some practical reminders to help you manage through the worst of the storm:
Secure loose items – If you haven’t already, tie down or bring inside trampolines, outdoor furniture, sun umbrellas, and shade sails. These can become dangerous in strong winds.

Keep torches and spare batteries ready – Power cuts are likely, so make sure you have reliable light sources close at hand.

Charge your mobile phones – Staying connected is essential, especially if emergency updates or assistance is needed.

Store fresh drinking water – Set aside a few bottles of clean water now, in case your supply becomes compromised or turned off.

This is a fast-moving and unpredictable event – please take all necessary precautions and follow any Civil Defence instructions closely.

If you need help or have questions about making a claim, don’t hesitate to contact us. We're here for you.

Stay safe,
The Bridges Insurance Team

🎶 If we could turn back time… 🎶 Well, this Sunday, we actually can!

Daylight savings ends, so don’t forget to turn your clocks back one hour and enjoy that extra sleep.

It’s also the perfect time to check your smoke alarms! A quick test and fresh batteries could make all the difference.
