Before I do anything stupid, can anyone please confirm that I will not damage a UK biometric passport by making a photocopy of the details ? !
Thank you.

No, it will be fine. Its certainly a good idea to have a copy of the photo page somewhere safe.

It's also a good idea to scan it and email yourself a copy, so you can retrieve it if the worst happens and you lose everything.
