Coronavirus turns life upside down
It’s the lucky ones working from home and many of us are. All of us are all dealing with a new reality that develops daily. Essential services has taken on a whole new meaning with supermarkets joining the list. While some sectors are working flat out, they are exceptional compared with so many industries that are struggling or worse.
Working from home
Working from home poses many new challenges. Is your home or apartment set up for this? Did you know tax deductions are available for your home office? If there are children with you, can they be kept occupied while you work? Many primary and older children are studying from home, creating new dynamics. It’s even worse if your job has gone or is shaky.
What are we doing?

Our priority is to safeguard the health of our staff who are mercifully all healthy. We are continuing to work to support you in getting the cheapest energy bill.
