Partners
There have been numerous individuals and organisations from the UK, as well as from abroad, that
have assisted Buckfastleigh Broadband at various stages in the project and there are many who
continue their support. From volunteers to public and private organisations as well as other Broadband
projects and community champions, there are too many to list each one. However below, in alphabetical
order, are a few of our partners. We hope that these will also prove useful to others interested
in a Broadband network for their community.
