Newsflash
Broadband News
We have recently developed a new section of this website to bring together information that will support those with an interest in rural broadband. The broadband section can be accessed via the heading on the left hand tool bar and includes real examples of how other rural communities have managed to find ways of getting broadband to remote areas. There is also access to information on funding opportunities. The Broadband resources page has various sections containing useful information such as awards, events, policies, papers and useful websites. A new Latest News category has recently been added to the resources section which contains up to date news articles about rural broadband.
