2. After a flood…
When a flood comes, what is truly
irreplaceable if water damage strikes?
Insurance can pay for many things,
like a new kettle, but what about the
following?
3. Family Photos
Old photographs were
not digital and
therefore it is often
impossible to get more
copies of these loved
family photos.
Say goodbye to them…
4. The Family Computer
Although the
insurance should
replace the cost of
the computer, you
could lose all the
stuff saved onto it.
Like photos, work,
and school
projects…
5. Collections…
Personal belongings
that have been
collected over years
would be impossible
to replace.
You would get some
money, but Dad’s old
records could no
longer be bought in
shops.
6. Your early
Artwork
Your mother
loved the
pictures you
drew as a young
child.
All these would
disappear.
7. Jewellery
Although insurance
would give money if
something happened
to replace a
necklace,
it would not have
the same
sentimental value
as an important gift.
8. Musical Instruments/
Equipment
Equipment that you
have broken in
through playing and
you have become
used to…
Like a musical
instrument. Or a
favourite pen.
You will get a new
one but it won’t be
the same!
9. Favourite Presents
If people gave you
things years ago,
they may no longer
be available in the
shops.
Similarly if people
have made you
things, like this
rabbit, they are
totally unique.
10. Irreplaceable
items!
After a flood, people sometimes find that
other irreplaceable items have been left
on the floor, like photo albums, and now
these are lost forever.
Think about what money cannot replace
Like important paperwork.
