Webinar round-up: Industry action to support vulnerable consumers

Thank you to everyone who joined us on the 17th of October 2023 to hear an update on our ongoing consumer initiatives, focusing on the Priority Service Register (PSR). Speakers from the utilities sector joined us to present information about PSR work and the initiatives to support vulnerable consumers in their areas. Overall, the webinar aimed to pave the way for future collaboration, leading to better consumer outcomes.
