SRS Insurance – Specialist Places of Worship Insurance

Places of worship are more than buildings — they are spiritual homes, community hubs, cultural centres and places of comfort for thousands of people every week. With open access and high footfall, they face risks that require specialist protection.

SRS Insurance provides a complete range of insurance products designed specifically for religious buildings and faith communities across the UK.

Insurance Tailored for All Faith Communities

SRS Insurance works with a wide range of religious organisations, including:

  • Mosques & Islamic centres
  • Churches, chapels & cathedrals
  • Synagogues & Jewish community buildings
  • Temples, mandirs & gurdwaras
  • Prayer halls & community worship centres
  • Multi-faith buildings

Every organisation operates differently — our cover is tailored to your building, routines, congregation size and risks.
