Fibrus is continuing to support community groups across Northern Ireland and Cumbria bridge the digital divide with the launch of the 2025 Fibrus Broadband Community Fund, which will benefit local groups and clubs.

Commsworld and Alncom have partnered to boost connectivity for retail motor group Tustain Motors, headquartered in Alnwick and with dealerships across rural areas of England and Scotland.
The pair have provided a fibre connection to each site, enabling the motor company to boost its web presence and messaging.
Gary Ross, Commsworld north east Account Manager, said: “The goal of our partnership with Alncom was always to connect businesses, organisations and communities, no matter how remote, to high capacity, resilient and future-proofed fibre connectivity.
“This new connectivity is fulfilling our joint vision to bridge the digital divide between rural and city so businesses, community organisations, residents groups and schools enjoy all the social inclusive benefits that better broadband connections bring.”
Stephen Pinchen, MD of Alncom, said: “Our knowledge on delivering fibre broadband to rural areas coupled with Commsworld’s resilient national infrastructure has seen us deliver fibre that will help rural communities keep pace with the connectivity that other more populated areas receive.”
