Hyperfast GB is the home for information on the progress of our network build contract under Project Gigabit – the UK government’s rollout of lightning-fast, reliable broadband across the UK.
Under a £150 million broadband improvement contract for Cumbria, Hyperfast GB will bring lightning-fast, realiable broadband services to almost 60,000 homes and businesses.
As part of this, we are reaching out to communities across Cumbria, hosting events that give us an opportunity to engage with local residents and answer questions about the rollout. The next event will take place in Nenthead.
We are hosting two drop-in information sessions for residents:
Tuesday 4th November 2025
- Midday session: 12pm – 2pm
- Evening session: 4pm – 6pm
Both sessions will take place at:
Nenthead Village Hall, Nenthead, Alston, CA9 3PN
No booking is required – simply call in at a time that suits you and speak to the Hyperfast GB team about the rollout of Full Fibre broadband and whether your home or business could be connected.
