Customer Challenge Groups

Customer Challenge Groups (CCGs) are independent local groups of customer representatives and other stakeholders. They have been established for the price review process to provide challenge to water companies’ business plans. Some of the groups are called different names but all CCGs should ensure that local and regional issues are properly considered and that the views of the company’s entire customer base are taken into account.

Most companies have set up websites which provide further information on the work of their CCGs. These websites can be found below:
