Help through Priority Services

Get help with the services you receive from us, tailored to your needs.

The Priority Services Register

The Priority Services Register is a list of our customers who need a bit of extra help.  

Having that list means we can make sure you can access our services and support whenever and however you need it. 

It also helps us prioritise care and assistance during supply interruptions. 

Eligibility for Priority Services

Priority Services are available to everyone, for free. 

The help you get can be permanent or temporary.  

You could get personalised help and support if any of the following applies to you or anyone you live with:

Support tailored to your needs

Each person has different needs. Two people in similar circumstances can be affected in different ways.

Our Priority Services are customised to meet your specific needs.

You can get Priority Services for a short time, or for the rest of your life. Whatever it is you need and however long you need that assistance for, we’ll do all we can to help.

We’ll regularly check in with you to see if your needs have changed and if your Priority Services still provide the right level of support for you.

How Priority Services could help

To help him with his specific needs, we make sure he’s got extra water if there’s ever a problem with his water supply.
