More than 14,000 more homes in Filey and Pickering can now access Virgin Media’s gigabit broadband services.

Following the build, Virgin Media O2’s build team spent a day volunteering at four Age UK shops in the local community. This involved helping staff in the shops with sorting, organising, and selling stock to customers.

The network has been built on behalf of nexfibre, which is investing £4.5bn to deliver high speed fibre to the home (FTTH) connections to five million homes across the UK by 2026.

nexfibre recently announced it has already reached a total of one million premises passed and ready for service.

Rajiv Datta, CEO at nexfibre said: “nexfibre’s multi-million pound investment in Filey and Pickering will enable thousands of households to access the benefits of full fibre broadband.

“It marks a significant step on our journey to connect 5 million premises by 2026.”
