Working with B4RN to deliver Hyperfast Broadband to Preston Richard

We are Live!

​Since going live over two years ago we have continued to branch out in all directions from the Hub at the Village Hall. 
The large machine pictured here has been used to lay ducting to the North, through the Fisheries field and on to Low Park Lane. We also have live connections in Sycamore Close, Birchfield and Dove Nest Lane.
Obviously work has been impacted by the latest lockdown but there is still plenty of preparation to do so that we are ready to leap back into action when restrictions are relaxed.
​If you can help bring Hyperfast Broadband to your neighbourhood please contact us. We are not just looking for diggers. You may be able to speed up provision of the service in your area by helping to coordinate amongst your neighbours.

Don't miss out! Now is the time to submit your service request.

To future proof your house's connection go to the "Get B4RN" page, here, and sign up. No money or bank details required at this stage. B4RN will wait until your current contract expires before making your connection live and asking for money! Find more info on our Service Request page. Any questions? Email b4rnpr@gmail.com

The Next Phase - Help with coordination still needed

Now that the Community Broadband project is gathering pace and work starts on a number of mini projects in parallel across the parish, we are looking for help to coordinate the construction activity. This does not necessarily mean actually doing the digging, but more importantly to manage and coordinate the activities for each dig. This would include coordinating the necessary equipment, skills and materials needed for each section of digging.

If you would like to get involved in any part of this, please contact us at b4rnpr@gmail.com or via the Contact page.

​Green Light for Hyperfast Broadband for Preston Richard

• ​We are delighted to announce that ​our Community Broadband Project has been granted approval to apply for Government grants for properties in our parish.
• All properties who would like to receive B4RN's Hyperfast broadband service in the future must complete the on-line Service Request Form. This is in addition to any previous registration of Expression of Interest which may have been submitted in the past. There is no obligation at this time but it helps us plan to get you connected.
• ​Instructions can be found on the Service Request page of this site.
• It is VERY important that everyone who would like to subscribe to the service completes the on-line Service Request Form to ensure that our community broadband project receives maximum government funding towards the costs of building the network and to ensure that all eligible properties receive a government grant! The sooner people fill out the form the sooner we can secure the government money and build the network.
• Thank you to everyone who submitted an Expression of Interest. We would not have got this far without you!
