Airband was proud sponsor of Shropshire Virtual Show

From Queen hits and cutting-edge theatre to blooming begonias and virtual cheese testing, the Shropshire Virtual Show (SVS) in August was a smorgasbord of fun, adventure and celebration of local businesses, arts and crafts and performers – and Airband was proud to be the key sponsor for the event.

Airband has been providing broadband to Shropshire for more than a decade and has both wireless and fibre networks across the county, providing superfast and ultrafast connectivity to more than 10,5000 premises.

SVS were delighted to have Airband on board

Shropshire Virtual Show co-organiser, Anna Rose Bowler, said: “Being based in a rural county, The Shropshire Virtual Show is exceptionally pleased to have the support and sponsorship from Airband. Without this partnership, sharing our unique live content across the county and beyond wouldn’t be possible.”

Rural broadband is in the spotlight

Airband Shropshire manager Claire Hollier said: “The surge in internet use prompted by the coronavirus crisis has put rural broadband in the spotlight and demonstrated how important it is to help keep people connected, especially in these challenging times.

“We’re delighted to have been able to support an event which is using the power of broadband to bring people together, showcase local businesses and raise much-needed funds for Shropshire good causes.”
