 Where to put a load of cash short term - zippy
There is a temporary protection of up to £1m for up to 6 months just for these purposes.

See here: www.bankofengland.co.uk/prudential-regulation/authorisations/financial-services-compensation-scheme

But I don't trust the banks (having worked for several) and would split the money across several banks as Terry suggested.

Just be aware that several banks share the same cover and therefore splitting your savings within the same group is likely to put you at risk. For example the Bank of Scotland PLC and Halifax share the same protection. There is a link to a PDF within the above document that shows companies that share the same licences.
