  • Writing on Behalf of Click and Type Name of Networks
    Press Release Utility Networks Partnership 24 June 2020 United front by utilities to help customers in vulnerable situations People who need extra help during a water, electricity or gas emergency will benefit from a new partnership approach by 12 utility companies. They have created a joint video to promote the Priority Services Register, a service that all utilities provide for people needing extra support for a variety of reasons. The companies involved are all members of the Utility Networks Partnership and are already working closely together to help customers living in vulnerable circumstances. They are Affinity Water, Anglian Water, Northumbrian Water, Essex and Suffolk Water, SES Water, SGN, South East Water, Southern Water, Thames Water, UK Power Networks Cadent Gas and Cambridge Water. Andy Clowes, Head of Customer Insight and Strategy, South East Water said: “Taking care of our customers is at the heart of everything we do. “That’s why across the utility sector we have come together to make the Priority Services Register even easier to use, giving our customers extra support when they need it most. It’s completely free of charge and it’s simple to sign up.” Kerry Potter, UK Power Networks’ consumer vulnerability manager, who chairs the Utility Networks Partnership, said: “It’s fantastic to work as a team to create a new video promoting the Priority Services Register which is making it easier for eligible people to get support. When 12 utility companies share a consistent message, we can help far more people. “Collaboration is key to tackling vulnerability and our utility networks group work together to provide consistent services for vulnerable customers in the regions we serve.” Press Release Utility Networks Partnership Thirty-five charity partners have helped develop the video to increase awareness about the free help available from utilities in the event of a gas, water or electricity outage.
