Through my conversations with residents across the constituency and discussions at my recent Village Surgeries, it has become abundantly clear that mobile phone coverage, reliability and roll out of superfast broadband services remain matters of real and pressing concern. These issues affect households, businesses and public services alike and in some of our more rural communities the situation is particularly acute. I am determined that these concerns are properly heard and addressed.
To that end, I recently convened a connectivity forum in Holsworthy, bringing together members of parish and town councils from across the constituency, alongside representatives from Openreach, Building Digital UK (BDUK), and other broadband providers, to discuss both the challenges we face and the practical steps required to improve connectivity.
However, I am keen to hear directly from you about your own experiences. Your views and evidence are vital if I am to continue pressing the Government and service providers to deliver the standard of digital connectivity our communities deserve.
Yours sincerely,
Sir Geoffrey
