WHY HAVE WE CHOSEN THESE DELIVERY METHODS?

			We are re-shaping our services with the emphasis on making our services more convenient for our customers.
			We are making increasing use of technology to become more efficient and customer friendly.
			We are shifting our focus from where we are located to where our customers are located. Although access to our new office is by appointment only, this doesn't limit your contact with us. We are increasing the number of free education sessions and offer a variety of communication channels to ensure that our services are convenient for you – our customers' needs sit at the heart of these changes.
