Lightning Fibre

Nusrat Ghani, MP for Wealden, was pleased to support locally operated broadband network Lightning Fibre in its full fibre roll out to South Hailsham.

Lightning Fibre is an Eastbourne-based broadband operator and internet service provider, delivering full fibre connectivity for thousands of homes and businesses in Hailsham and across East Sussex. The company provides almost 200 jobs locally and has already rolled out full fibre broadband to over 5,000 homes and businesses across North Hailsham.

Lightning Fibre is also a key supporter of local communities and sponsors Hailsham Festival and Hailsham Bonfire Night, and contributes funding to Hailsham Active, helping secure grant funding for community projects across the region.

Nusrat Ghani, MP for Wealden said: “Reliable internet access is an absolute necessity for households, schools and businesses in Wealden. Poor broadband is one of the top frustrations for local residents and I am constantly campaigning for improvements to the provision and reliability of internet across Wealden. I was pleased to learn all about this exciting new phase of the full fibre roll out for South Hailsham, and I’m pleased that local companies like Lightning Fibre are helping to build the new infrastructure needed, accelerating growth and jobs, and improving the quality of life for thousands of people in Hailsham and across Wealden and East Sussex.”

Paul Thornton, Network Director, Lightning Fibre, added: “We’re delighted to connect South Hailsham, delivering Full Fibre to over 5,000 more homes and businesses. Our brand new, full fibre network is much faster and more reliable than the out-dated copper networks of the past; it’s also a greener and, in many cases, cheaper network.”
