The BT Digital Voice team will be hosting 1-hour webinars to equip us with the knowledge of what the switchover means in practice and the support available for those with additional needs. The webinars will also cover support for those without broadband and information on how to access backup solutions to protect connections during power cuts. Attendees will also be introduced to the Connected Together Conversation Starter Pack - a new resource designed to give you the key information you need.
