Speak up for faster broadband

Maisemore (and Over) are being left behind when it comes to getting a fibre connection for broadband.

This was highlighted at the last Maisemore Parish Council meeting.  Planning is now well under way for the next phase of fibre roll-out, so we all need to speak up about it now.

Here's what you can do:

• Visit www.broadband-feedback.com and complete the survey before the end of November.  This survey is being used for planning phase.
• If you haven't done so already, register your interest at www.fastershire.com.  This site also provides updates on developments.
• Register your interest at www.gigaclear.com.  Gigaclear are key providers for the phase 2 roll-out.
• Email your MP, Mark Harper, and ask him why the government is letting Maisemore be left behind in the provision of fast broadband.
• Finally, if you know of any other website or contact  who could influence what happens, please let us know so that we can put it on this site

There are a number of sites where you can test your current broadband speed, such as U-switch or Broadband Speed Test.
