For churches and faith-based organisations, safeguarding your place of worship and community is vital. At the heart of your ministry is the building that welcomes congregations, hosts events, and supports countless activities. Ensuring that your church is comprehensively protected from risks—whether it’s property damage, liability claims, cyber threats, or unforeseen disruptions—is essential to keep your mission thriving.
For CSC Buying Group members, Unity Insurance Services offers specialist, tailor-made insurance solutions designed to meet the unique needs of churches and places of worship across the UK.
Why Churches Need Dedicated Insurance Cover
Churches face a variety of risks. From potential damage caused by fire, flood, or vandalism, to public liability issues during services or events, and even cyber threats targeting sensitive data, the right insurance ensures you’re prepared for whatever may come. Standard commercial policies often don’t account for the specific nature of church activities or the value of historic buildings, making specialist insurance essential.
How Unity Insurance Services Supports CSC Buying Group Members
Unity Insurance Services is a trusted expert in insurance for faith-based organisations. Their dedicated Places of Worship Insurance package provides comprehensive cover tailored specifically for churches, chapels, and other religious buildings. Here’s how Unity can support CSC Buying Group members:
Comprehensive Property Protection
Unity covers church buildings and their contents against risks such as fire, theft, flood, and accidental damage. Whether your church owns valuable furnishings, sound equipment, or historic artefacts, Unity’s policies ensure you have the right level of protection.
Public Liability Cover
Churches welcome visitors every day, from regular congregants to event attendees. Unity’s public liability insurance protects your organisation against claims arising from injury or property damage on your premises, giving you peace of mind.
Employer’s Liability Insurance
If you have employees or volunteers, Unity helps you meet your legal obligations with employer’s liability cover, protecting against claims resulting from workplace injuries or illnesses.
Cyber Liability Insurance
In today’s digital age, churches increasingly rely on online systems for communication, donations, and data management. Unity offers Cyber Liability Insurance to protect your organisation from the financial impact of data breaches, cyberattacks, or loss of sensitive information. This coverage helps safeguard your congregation’s trust and ensures continuity in your operations.
Additional Coverage Options
Unity offers optional add-ons tailored to church needs, including:
Loss of Income Insurance – Protect your church’s financial stability if an insured event forces you to close temporarily.
Legal Expenses Cover – Assistance with legal costs if disputes arise.
Fidelity Guarantee – Protection against financial losses due to dishonesty by employees or volunteers.
