B4RN Cheshire

Last year, CheshireHyperfast was set up locally after it was clear that we, and many other people in our area, were dissatisfied with their broadband provision with little prospect of the situation improving in the near future.

We looked at many ways to address the problem but there was really only one approach that stood head and shoulders above the rest – Broadband for the Rural North or B4RN.

B4RN started as a community project in rural Lancashire with just a couple of parishes. They built a very very high speed pure fibre optic network from scratch with the help of local volunteers, landowners and investors. Very quickly though, communities on the edge of the coverage area also wanted the service. So, each community formed a group, raised investment, persuaded landowners and recruited volunteers to build their own new piece of the B4RN network.

The B4RN Cheshire group is one of the first truly ‘remote’ B4RN volunteer projects that hasn’t grown organically onto the edge of B4RN’s original Lancashire core.

The attraction of B4RN’s high quality, high speed and affordable network has resulted in rapid expansion and given rural dwellers access to broadband that is the envy of most city dwellers.
