Quickline Communications is bringing a bespoke engagement programme to 16 secondary schools in collaboration with Ahead Partnership, introducing young people to the technology and digital sectors across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
Lit Fibre has launched a partnership with FC Clacton to mark the arrival of its fibre service in the Clacton-on-Sea, Holland-on-Sea and Jaywick.
The partnership will see Lit Fibre give Clacton FC’s stadium a revamp to signal its commitment to working with the local community.
The stadium will receive a repaint, repair works and new kitchen to help FC Clacton, which is run as a local Charitable Community Benefit Society, to continue its programme of providing children’s meals from the venue.
“Our partnership with FC Clacton is a way to build upon the strong pride within the town and benefit young people as well as the fans,” said CEO Tom Williams, CEO of Lit Fibre.
“Digital connections are a huge benefit to our residents and businesses and we’re delighted to see commercial operators rolling out gigabit broadband across the county at a fast pace,” added Cllr Lesley Wagland, Essex County Council.
