Farmers build DIY high speed internet connection

Fed up with being "outside of the scope of economic viability" for high speed internet access a group of farmers in Lancashire are "utilising the skills, time, energy and ingenuity of the local residents and businesses" to install a "Gigabit, future-proofed, reliable, communications network to every property".

They are training up local people to do the installation and the project will be backed with a share issue for a not for profit company.
