Customer Involvement Award
The Customer Involvement Award is presented to a registered involved customer, who is helping Platform to improve services and make sure that our customers voice is heard.
Customer Involvement Award Winner 2024
Our Customer Involvement Award winner for 2024 is Les Barrett from Shard End, Birmingham.
Retired Les has been helping customers at retirement housing schemes Sandham Grange and Robertson Knoll with their digital skills; he has gone above and beyond and, not content with developing their IT skills alone, he has shown a genuine passion and real interest in nurturing confidence.
Les explained: “I’ve been helping customers out once a week for the past year. I absolutely love helping out in my local community and now I am retired, giving something back has become really important to me. We’ve had some lovely success stories; I organised for a gentleman’s computer to be rebuilt as he just couldn’t get it to work and he is still overjoyed when I see him!”
Les uses a course called ‘Learn My Way’ which takes attendees through each step; his approach has resulted in those attending learning the basics without feeling inadequate.
