B4RN is all about community. We can't do what we do without the help of local volunteers, investors and supportive landowners.
Communities have so much to gain: faster broadband for families and businesses, FREE service to primary schools, village halls, places of worship and other community assets.
The opportunity for the community to come together by creating a Community Dig Team, this enables communities to earn money to put back into their own community projects by garden digging and house kit fitting.
Alongside all this incredible benefits you get connected to a business and provider that cares about service!
Get Involved, Get Volunteering
B4RN is built on community spirit.
At B4RN we work hand-in-hand with rural communities to design, plan and build a full fibre network. We then deliver some of the fastest internet service in the country (1,000mbps) to every customer on the network at a low cost.
We’ve been doing this for more than a decade, and we’re proud to have 14,000 rural properties currently taking service.
We can only do this thanks to the hard work and dedication of our amazing volunteers, who are willing to invest so much of their time and energy to deliver significant and lasting benefit to their wider community.
Your Local B4RN Project Manager is Martin Dickson-Green.

Get Involved, Get Investing
B4RN is a Community Benefit Society, we aren’t interested in commercial speculation, so we only extend our network into communities where we’re wanted.
Each new area that invites B4RN in needs to raise a certain level of investment to cover the work and materials required for their area’s installation. Currently, a significant amount of that cost is being met with government voucher funding.
Project Gigabit is the funding programme by the UK Government that promises £5 billion to subsidise the roll-out of gigabit-broadband to the ‘hardest to reach’ premises in the country that will not be reached by private investment.
Each new area needs to raise a certain level of investment to cover the remaining cost of work and materials required for their area’s installation.
What makes B4RN Different?
Rural communities are at the heart of what
we do.
The B4RN Mission:
"To deliver the best internet service in the country to the areas that are hardest to reach, working shoulder to shoulder with, and for, rural communities, to realise the enduring benefits of greater resilience and connectivity."
