SSEN. Priority Services Register

SSEN have asked the Parish Council to share the following information about registering for Priority Services - providing extra help and support to customers with additional needs during a power cut.

The Priority Services Register (PSR) is free to join. It helps utility companies, including energy suppliers, electricity, gas and water networks look after customers who have extra communication, access or safety needs. It helps utility companies tailor their services to support households who need extra help, and support them during a power cut, gas or water supply interruption.
