Would you need extra support if you had a power cut?
UK Power Networks (who some people still remember as ‘the electricity board’) are currently running an initiative to encourage residents who would need extra support during a power cut to register with them.
What help could you expect?
- A priority telephone number that you can call 24 hours a day
- A dedicated team who will contact you to keep you updated during a power cut.
- Tailored support if needed such as home visits, hot meals, advice and keeping your friends and relatives updated.
- In certain scenarios they may also offer a free hotel overnight and transport to the hotel.
- They can put you in touch with an expert who can offer you advice on energy bills and energy saving tips if this is important to you.
