MP backs BT scheme for community groups to apply for a year’s free broadband

 

Local MP, Gordon Henderson is backing a BT scheme which has been launched to allow eligible community groups in Sittingbourne and Sheppey to apply for a year’s free broadband.

 

The BT Community Connections scheme offers the opportunity for community groups to be awarded a year’s free BT broadband if they help the community access the internet and improve people’s ICT skills.

 

Mr Henderson said,

 

“I think this is an excellent initiative and I would urge any community groups who currently do not have access to broadband to take advantage of this offer.”

 

Applications close on Thursday 13th January 2011. More information about the scheme can be found by clicking on the following link:
