A number of villages in rural parts of Dorset (England) have begun to go live on a new gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) broadband network, which comes after local ISP Wessex Internet<\/a> secured additional subsidised voucher funding from Dorset Council and the Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP).<\/p>\n

The UK government’s Gigabit Voucher Scheme can usually allocate up to \u00a31,500 to eligible homes and \u00a33,500 to businesses in rural areas to help cover the installation costs for new gigabit-capable broadband networks, which can then be pooled by residents. But sometimes even that isn’t enough to help fund difficult rural builds.<\/p>\n

Instead, Dorset Council and the Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) worked with the ISP to harness additional funding from the Government’s Getting Building Fund<\/strong><\/a> (GBF), which enables residents in such locations to claim top-up vouchers worth up to \u00a32,500 (businesses can also get up to \u00a36,000 each).<\/p>\n

Residents in one of the first villages to benefit from this revised top-up scheme, Fifehead St Quintin<\/strong>, have already started to be connected and more will follow. We note that Belchalwell, Ansty and Melcombe Bingham, Melbury Abbas and Cann Common, Sandley, Twyford and West Melbury are all at the build or connection stage.<\/p>\n

After that the next to benefit (i.e. those currently in final planning) will be Bugley and Eccliffe, Cann, East and West Chelborough, Lewcombe and Long Crichel. Many more could follow those, provided locals in poorly served Dorset communities express enough interest (see here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Dorset Council\u2019s deputy leader, Cllr Peter Wharf, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are delighted to see the first fibre installation using Dorset top-up funding come to fruition.<\/p>\n

Seeing a rural community go from struggling on meagre broadband speeds to enjoying ultra-fast connections is exactly why we provided these additional funds.<\/p>\n

Without the Dorset top-up, communities like Fifehead St Quintin would still be forced to cope with inadequate broadband not fit for the 21st century. Our rural area must not be left behind in today\u2019s digital world.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ludo Skinner, Director of Infrastructure at Wessex Internet<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“A sub-standard connection because you live in a rural area is unacceptable. Connectivity is a necessity \u2013 rural communities, businesses, schools, and the healthcare sector all depend on it to thrive. We are delighted to be working with Dorset Council. Local authority innovations like their Dorset Rural Gigabit Connectivity Voucher Top Up Scheme address any shortfall in funding and are crucial to ensure that rural areas are no longer overlooked or underserved.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

All of this should complement WI’s existing projects in Dorset, such as their scheme o connect 60 community sites from Blandford to Sherborne to full fibre (here<\/a>), and their work to cover 8,000 premises in the North Dorset market towns of Blandford Forum and Sturminster Newton (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Prices for their full fibre service typically start at \u00a329 per month for a 100Mbps (15Mbps upload) tier on a 12-month term, although this only comes with a 100GB data allowance, and you\u2019ll have to pay \u00a349 (one-off) for activation. By comparison, their top unlimited usage package will give you 900Mbps (300Mbps upload) speeds for \u00a384 per month. The price reflects the high cost of building in remote rural communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
