The Hampton Court Community - residents, businesses and other local organisations - are disadvantaged by not having adequate internet and broadband speeds.

The solution is to install a new fibre cable from the telephone exchange to our local telecoms street cabinet on the pavement next to the entrance to Bushy Park.

Because we a small community and a long way from the Teddington telephone exchange, it is not economic for Openreach to install a fibre cable for us and they have no future plans to do so.

However, if we pay for the cost of installation by contributions from among ourselves, Openreach will lay a new cable under the Community Fibre Partnership Scheme and will maintain it for our benefit thereafter.

Tim Blair who lives at Tiltyard Cottage in Hampton Court Road is championing this project and has been working with Openreach for a solution. The cost of the installation will be £12,174. However, we only need to raise half of the money needed amounting to £6,087, as a matched funding grant has been secured which will pay for the balance.

An order has been placed with Openreach and it now all depends on our community pulling together and raising the balance.

This Project is to explain what is happening here and to engage everyone in our small local community to raise the sum needed for a new fibre cable.

Once the project is fully funded, we will be able to schedule the installation of the new fibre cable by Openreach and start to enjoy fast and responsive online services in the way they should be received.
