The Rural Connection project

Cosmic's Digital Mentors are supporting the Devon and Somerset County Councils ‘Rural Connection’ programme to introduce fast broadband to digitally deprived rural areas. The project aims to provide free satellite broadband installation into many homes and businesses in four key areas of Devon and Somerset that currently do not receive broadband or where speeds are very slow. The areas are shown below.
