Gigaclear is proceeding with plans to provide our village and nearby villages with a full fibre broadband connection. Here are the details from their latest press release, and note that there are 2 events on the 18th July where they will take questions.
From their press release:
The roll-out of ultrafast full fibre broadband to rural communities in Norfolk continues next month with over 1,600 homes to benefit.
Engineering work getting underway will result in the first residents having access to full fibre broadband by November 2024. The work is being carried out by the UK’s largest rural alternative network provider Gigaclear, part of a multi-million-pound infrastructure boost in the county.
CEM Andrew Lipski said: “At Gigaclear, we’re on a mission to take our full fibre broadband to rural Norfolk because we believe a fast and reliable connection shouldn’t just be available to people living in the county’s larger towns and cities. People living in urban areas, on average, enjoy much faster broadband speeds than those in rural communities and we’re determined to narrow this gap.”
“Having access to ultrafast ‘full fibre’ rather than the slower ‘part fibre’ broadband will allow people living in villages included in the rollout Brooke, Alpington, Yelverton and Shotesham to work from home, stream online entertainment, scroll and gameplay just like everyone else.”
Two events have been arranged on the 18th of July.
One during the day at The Wheel of Fortune between 11am and 2pm and at Brooke Village Hall from 5pm to 8pm. If you wish to be kept updated with email updates and to ensure that you don’t miss our events then please register with no obligation at www.gigaclear.com/lockin This also gives you access to our special pre live offer with our 500mbps connection for an amazing price of £20 per month.
