UK to test Starlink satellite broadband for those hard to reach areas
In a statement, Digital Secretary Michelle Donelan claimed that ensuring everyone can get access to a quality internet connection is crucial to the government's much-vaunted leveling-up plans.
The government also said it has now signed a £108 million contract with Northern Ireland-based provider Fibrus to connect up to 60,000 rural homes and businesses in Cumbria in northwest England that might otherwise have missed out on upgrades to install high-speed broadband services. Fibrus said it will create at least 90 apprenticeships over the next three years as part of this development, covering a range of roles from underground and overhead cabling to surveying and is investing £50,000 to establish an apprentice training academy near Penrith.
