More than 100 residents who had previously registered with the government’s Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme in Cambois, Northumberland, have been connected to fibre broadband by Factco.
Cambois is the largest completed voucher project to date in Northumberland.
The Gigabit Broadband Voucher scheme provides a grant of up to £1,500 for residents and up to £3,500 for businesses towards the cost of installing gigabit-capable broadband.
Factco MD Lee Murphy said: “We noticed improved connectivity needed a team of specialists to help bridge the digital gap between rural and urban areas.
“We evolved and we’re now working hard to support businesses and homes across the UK by connecting them to full fibre broadband.”
