Freedom Fibre connects the Higher Folds Community

Freedom Fibre has spearheaded a community support project with TalkTalk Business to deliver free full fibre broadband to the Higher Folds Community Centre in Leigh.

The Centre supports hundreds of local people a month and promotes the physical, social, cultural and economic betterment of the community, through training sessions, groceries and affordable childcare services.

In addition to providing a free connection, Freedom Fibre’s will participate in tech events, digital and marketing support and promote digital inclusion.

Marie Danby, Customer Operations Director, said: “Providing reliable and fast connectivity to an area that often lacks the financial resources for a high-speed connection enables residents to engage with essential services, improves education outcomes, and increases positive social engagement within the community.”
