Welcome to Consumer Focus
Nine months after I joined the Board of the newly created Consumer Focus, the organisation comes into effect today with the merger of Postwatch, Energywatch and the National Consumer Council.
It is the largest and best-funded body in the history of the UK consumer movement with an economy-wide remit. As the credit crunch and the financial chaos hits all consumers, never more have they needed a strong voice. You can check out the organisation’s web site here.
Consumer Focus has an impressive Chief Executive Ed Mayo who runs a blog here and I have a distinguished group of colleagues on the Board as you’ll see here. I’m really looking forward to working with the staff and getting my teeth into some big issues.
