Check location of powercuts
We have also been warned to expect sub-zero temperatures in some parts of Devon overnight and there is a possibility that some properties may be without power over the weekend. We will be encouraging people in Devon to watch out for their neighbours who are vulnerable and might be without heating, light or cooking this weekend. When staff are visiting people in their own homes suffering power outages we know they will want to ensure clients are safe, fed and warm and if you are concerned that someone is unsafe at home without power contact us on the following numbers:
Usual business hours - 0345 155 1007
Out-of-hours - 0345 600 0388
Thank you once again for your work this weekend.
