Customer Awareness Campaign

In February 2010, WPD launched a major, new customer awareness campaign in the wake of the latest price review (DPCR5) for the UK’s electricity distribution industry.
 
The six-week campaign, which was branded Power for Life, was designed to inform and to engage with the 2.6 million customers who rely upon WPD for electricity.
 
The campaign incorporated:
 
  • A TV advert which  appeared on ITV1 and on S4C in Wales;
  • Newspaper advertising – (in every regional daily, evening and weekly newspaper);
  • A four-page information newsletter (delivered to every home and business across the South West of England and South Wales).
