Gigabit voucher scheme
Connecting businesses
If you're a small or medium-sized business (SME), you may be able to get a gigabit voucher worth up to £3,500. This will help you to upgrade your business broadband to a fast and reliable connection over gigabit-capable infrastructure.
The scheme is supplier-led. If there are no registered suppliers in your area, you can approach a supplier and encourage them to register for the scheme. Both national and regional suppliers can register.
A business can boost the voucher value by joining together with other businesses. You can also team up with up to 10 residential customers per business, where the value of a resident's voucher is £1,500.
Group projects are when two or more residents and/or SMEs get together to combine their vouchers towards the shared cost of installation. Single connections are not eligible for extra funding.
Connecting residents
If you're a private resident you may be able to get a voucher worth £1,500 as part of a group project led by a supplier.
You can approach a supplier in your area to see if there are any group projects you may be able to join. If there are no projects in your area, you may be able to join up with other residents and local businesses and directly approach a supplier.
You can check if you're eligible for the rural gigabit voucher scheme via the Government's voucher scheme website.
