Fastershire Survey

Tell us what you think about broadband in Herefordshire and Gloucestershire!

A survey looking at the availability of broadband in the two counties is being undertaken by independent researchers at the Royal Agricultural University (RAU). The survey is part of the ‘Evaluation of the impact of superfast fibre broadband in Herefordshire and Gloucestershire’ and is due to be published in 2017.

The responses will directly feed into to the Fastershire project and the results will also help demonstrate the level of demand in communities that are yet to benefit from the Fastershire rollout and help raise their profile for better broadband with potential suppliers.

The survey will be live until the end of November and takes around 5 minutes to complete, with questions relating to how residents and businesses currently use broadband and internet services and where better broadband services are required.

To complete the survey, please visit, www.broadband-feedback.com.

Sherry Tasting – Friday 18th November

Sherry glasses + lots of tapasWe have a new date for the postponed sherry tasting….and I’m giving you lots of notice so you can put it in your diaries!
It’s Friday November 18th from 7pm, finishing around 9pm. There will be six sherries to taste ranging from very dry to sweet PXs…and the claim is there’s one for every course.  Please let me know if you will be attending.
There will be appropriate tapas to go with them and Robin Scott-Martin, who is doing the tasting, will give some background and will take orders if wanted.
It will cost you a mere £5 which is excellent value for money.
Hope you’ll be able to make it and do bring friends!
Carol
