If you’re able to, keep your house heated to at least 7°C, and, if you have one, keep your loft hatch open to help warmer air get to your pipes and water tank. Make sure you know where your stop tap is and how to turn it off in case you need to turn the water off at the mains.
If you do end up with a frozen pipe, you can defrost this carefully once you’ve turned the water off at the stop tap. You can find out how to do this safely, plus more information and guidance on avoiding burst pipes, here.

Understanding your home cover and when it applies

How to check if your car is insured

In the UK it is a legal requirement to have car insurance on your vehicle if it is on a public road, whether being driven or not. It is extremely important to know when your policy is due to expire as this could have a serious impact on you if you are using your car.
