Hear from St Helens: what the new network means locally

In our latest video, hear directly from those leading the St Helens project as well as some of the brilliant local businesses, sharing how the new network will benefit them.

As we announced back in April, we’re currently in the midst of rolling out a brand new full fibre network across St Helens town centre. We’ve been working closely with St Helens Council towards the new network, which is part of a wider Digital Infrastructure Project and Town Centre Regeneration Project.

This initiative is all about place-making, boosting the local economy and investing in the future of the borough. From supporting local businesses to partnering with education initiatives like Tute and Thrive, we’re committed to making this project a real success for the community.

In our latest video, hear directly from those leading the project:

  • Andy Tatlock, CRO at Elevate
  • Cllr Keith Laird, Newton-le-Willows, East Ward
  • Cllr Richard McCauley, Thatto Heath Ward
  • Chris Founds, MD at CJ Founds and Programme Manager for the Digital Infrastructure Scheme

And a number of brilliant local businesses, sharing how the new network will benefit them. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue the rollout over the next 12 months!
