The UK's phone network is changing, and traditional landlines are being replaced with digital phone services that use your broadband connection.
Most residents will be contacted directly by their phone provider before any change takes place. If you or someone you know relies on a landline, telecare alarm, or other connected device, please make sure any equipment is compatible with the new service.
Important: Digital phone services are powered from your home broadband equipment. This means your phone may not work during a power cut unless you have a battery backup unit. If you rely on your phone for emergencies, discuss battery backup options with your phone provider.
If you have questions, contact your phone provider for advice and support or contact the parish council.
