As some of you may already know, a representative of County Broadband has been approaching parishioners regarding installing fibre broadband in the village.

Surlingham’s representative is Harry Lowman. He can be contacted on harry.lowman@countybroadband.co.uk or 07944 048233, where he will be able to answer any of your queries or questions. He will be able to go through the offers available and see whether they meet individuals’ needs.

County Broadband require 20% of the village to sign up in order for them to provide this service to the whole village, also they will install fibre broadband to the Village Hall at no additional cost.

District and County Councillor Vic Thomson confirmed this will be the quickest way for Surlingham village to get fibre broadband as there are no other companies coming to the village anytime in the near future.
