West Dorset District Council and Weymouth & Portland Borough Council are encouraging local businesses to apply for grants to upgrade their broadband facilities.
All small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in eligible postcodes throughout Dorset can now apply for Broadband Connection Vouchers valued at between £100 and £3,000 per business on a first come first served basis.
You can check your eligibility now at: www.connectionvouchers.co.uk.
Nick Thornley, Head of Economy, Leisure & Tourism for West Dorset District Council and Weymouth & Portland Borough Council said: “We want as many local businesses as possible to benefit from the grants available.
“Significant investment has been put together to improve broadband infrastructure across the county.
“This is a great opportunity for businesses to take advantage and to modernise their operations.”
Businesses have the opportunity to utilise better communications in order to grow and access new markets. Modernising broadband operations will also help equip businesses for future digital challenges.
