Fibre Broadboad for Ackworth

Broadband is vital to our economy, prosperity and life chances. Despite this, many communities remain on the wrong side of the digital divide.

Living in, Ackworth, one of the largest villages and communities within the UK, you will know only too well the lack of broadband speed, the frustrations that this causes. Despite the ever increasing numbers of broadband users the performance we receive is a major issue, many of us experience extremely slow speeds and in some instances less than 1Mbps.

This is unacceptable and in this day and age is unusable, most everyday activity occurs online. Therefore we are paying for a service which is not even facilitating general Internet browsing.

This petition aims to provide you with a "voice" to request the acceleration of the introduction of faster broadband services to Ackworth, Pontefract. Please sign this petition to demonstrate your support for this cause.
