Further Description
  • NOT-FOR-PROFIT BROADBANDWedmore is an isolated village – too far from its nearest exchange to get ADSL. In response, civic and business leaders formed a not-for-profit company, ‘Wireless Wedmore’, to buy and run a wireless broadband connection for the village.With advice and help from RABBIT (theRemote Access Broadband Inclusion Trail),wireless broadband was available inside 90 days at an annual cost of just £260 –much less than a leased line option.Director Angela Vivian says: “Broad-based community support is vital, but it’s just asimportant to have a driving force – a small group who will put in the hours it takes to make it happen.www.wirelesswedmore.org
