We have a number of colleague networks that provide support and community to our colleagues. We have over 70 veterans at SP Electricity North West; our Armed forces colleague resource group provides significant support not only to our existing armed forces community, but also for those transitioning from an Armed forces career to a civilian career.

This group meets on a quarterly basis and is instrumental in helping the business in their continued support for our Armed forces community.
