Life ins/assurance, FIB, level term etc

My partner comes from Estonia and has lived in the UK for over 5 years. We currently live together in my house and we have no dependents. Her closest family member lives in Estonia.

She has recently decided she would like some cover in the event she dies or becomes ill or has an accident.

I am highly skeptical about this and was wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what exactly she needs???

    If you live in the UK it should be fairly straight forward to get life cover.

    What is there to be skeptical about?
    You have buildings insurance incase anything happens to your home, you have contents insurance incase they break/stolen, you may even have insurance to cover loss of your movile phone. What about insurance to cover the one thing that brings money in to pay for all of that.... yourself?
