Creating partnerships

For many people television is an important way of receiving information from the outside world and the process of changing from analogue to digital can be worrying. That's why we are working closely with local agencies to make sure people get the help they are entitled to.

Although we write to all eligible people in plenty of time to get the help they need, we are aware that some people may need a 'Helping Hand' in responding to our letter.

Our team of Regional Project Co-ordinators work on a local level with Local Authorities, community groups, the voluntary sector and other key organisations to build positive relationships with the community to ensure that the Help Scheme reaches people who need the most help to switch to digital TV.

Our partnership network is now up and running and we are increasing the number of Regional Project Co-ordinators in other areas to ensure that we can continue to develop new networks of partners who are trusted within their communities.
