Ultrafast Broadband is coming to Chearsley

The Parish Council has today been given a presentation by Gigaclear, the company that will be bringing ultrafast broadband (up to 900Mb) services to the village in the near future.  The information we received was very useful and reassuring, particularly in terms of the way the installation will be carried out, the arrangements they will make to minimise disruption to everyday life during installation, and the services they will provide.

Current planning is for the Installation work to start around the end of April, with the first customers offered service July/August.
Recognising the level of interest there is likely to be in this initiative, Gigaclear has agreed to host two open meetings for village residents to provide full information on their plans and answer all the questions you will have.  The first will be on-line, probably using Microsoft Teams, and the second live in the Village Hall.

Gigaclear will be writing to all households in the village soon, introducing themselves and providing details of these meetings.  We strongly recommend that residents try to attend one of them and use them to raise your questions and concerns.  If however anyone has a question you would prefer the Parish Council to ask on your behalf please send it to us at the usual address: chearsleypc@chearsley.com.

In the meantime, you may like to take a look at the services provided by Gigaclear at www.gigaclear.com
