BUSINESS LIFE Make sure you insure treasures N FU Mutual is reminding those who buy jewellery as a gift about the importance of insuring and correctly valuing treasured possessions. Presenting a loved one with jewellery is a romantic tradition. Unfortunately, the items given are often undervalued or incorrectly insured and this is particularly common for items which have been inherited or given as gifts. John Heather, Senior Agent at NFU Mutual on the Isle of Wight, said: “Many pieces of jewellery are unique, and have great sentimental value to the owner. If these items are lost or stolen, the sentimental loss can be equal to, if not greater, than the financial loss suffered.” NFU Mutual recommends valuations are revisited every three years. 110 www.visitilife.com STA Sofas Digital Transfer 135 High Street, Newport, PO30 1TX t. 01983 821262 e.

Weddings, birthdays, holidays, Christmas and anniversaries of days gone by are just a few of those magic moments you would like to reminisce over, but instead the tapes are left in the loft gathering dust, with the video recorder having been disposed of years ago.
