Upgrading the UK’s Digital Infrastructure
Struggling with slow, unreliable broadband? The Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme. funded by the UK Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), helps cover the cost of installing gigabit-capable full fibre broadband directly to your home or business. Wildanet is a registered supplier, and we’re connecting communities across Cornwall right now.
A gigabit connection delivers speeds of up to 2,000Mbps, around 40 times faster than average broadband speeds in Cornwall, transforming how you work, stream, and stay connected.
It’s simple. For every home or business that Wildanet connects in eligible areas, the Government pays a subsidy to help cover some of the costs of bringing our gigabit network to your community. The more vouchers that are claimed, the more funding becomes available, and the more people we can connect.
Wildanet claims the voucher directly from DCMS; you don’t need to apply for funding yourself. All we need from you is to respond to the two emails DCMS sends you during the process. These confirmations are essential: without them, we cannot claim the funding that makes it viable to bring gigabit broadband to your community.
Gigabit broadband through the voucher scheme gives Cornwall homes and businesses access to speeds of up to 2,000Mbps, infrastructure that will serve your community for generations.
Eligibility is based on your location. The scheme targets areas not yet served by gigabit-capable broadband. Contact Wildanet to check whether your address qualifies.
The voucher value varies and is confirmed by DCMS in the final email once your connection is live and verified. The voucher covers some or all of the cost of bringing the fibre network to your property.
You simply need to respond to two emails from DCMS ([email protected]), one before installation and one after. Wildanet handles everything else.
Project Gigabit is the UK Government’s programme to deliver fast, reliable broadband to rural and hard-to-reach areas. The Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme is one of its key funding mechanisms.
