Natland Parish Council has asked Natland News to help them find a Broadband Champion. A rapid response is required to ensure Natland is represented in the first round of meetings. Please email David Peters Chair of NPC asap
'Cumbria County Council is hoping that every parish will appoint one or more broadband champions. These will be parish representatives who will work with CALC and the County Council to try to ensure that they are not left out of the current drive towards next generation access. Central Government is committed to ensuring that broadband provision across the country meets minimum standards and has charged Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) to work with rural areas via the County Council to ensure that this happens in Cumbria . Shortly BDUK and Cumbria County Council will be announcing plans to set this in motion in the county'.
