Derbyshire County Council is working hard to improve broadband access in Derbyshire – and would appreciate a few minutes of your time to help.

The County Council has been allocated £7.39 million from the Government’s Broadband Delivery UK scheme – but has to find the same amount in match-funding in order to receive the money.

A key part of this is showing public demand for improved broadband coverage to encourage investment from providers.

They realise a fast and reliable broadband connection can be vital to help community groups, sports clubs and charities thrive.

So they really need you to share your experiences by filling in their survey at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/broadbandsurvey

It will only take a few minutes of your time and could help unlock vital funds to boost broadband across Derbyshire.

You could also win one of five £50 High Street vouchers in their prize draw for your troubles.

If you don’t have access to the internet you can visit a county council library to use a computer for free.

Or you can ring our contact centre Call Derbyshire on 08 456 058 058 or 01629 533190 where an operator will fill in the survey while you are on the line.

Additional comments can be emailed to broadband@derbyshire.gov.uk

Your help is very much appreciated.

Regards

Councillor Kevin Parkinson

Derbyshire County Council Cabinet Member for Regeneration
