Lane End Community Broadband

LECB is my project to bring high speed broadband services to Lane End - a rural community in Buckinghamshire, near High Wycombe.

The project is in its very early stages, indeed you may remember a post I wrote a few weeks ago about community engagement. Well, we are taking the next steps...

On October 22nd we will hold our first meeting. The intention is to hold an open discussion on high speed broadband to help educate people as to the benefits high speed broadband can bring to them, their families and the community. Of course, ultimately I am hoping to convince them that they should help support this project or even get involved with it.

The meeting is primarily for the community, however I am also streaming it (technology and local broadband permitting) and would be delighted to see others join remotely and perhaps learn a little more about this project and may be even get some ideas about how they could do something similar in their area.

Details of the event can be found here: http://nga-uk.com/page6/page6.html

By all means, spread the word!
