Project Gigabit voucher scheme

Project Gigabit provides up to £3,500 from the Government to get lightning fast, gigabit capable broadband for your rural home or business.

What is Project Gigabit?

This £5 billion Government voucher scheme will help hard-to-reach communities receive next generation gigabit capable broadband. That’s fast enough to download a 5GB file in under a minute.

Everyone deserves faster broadband. Project Gigabit will help remote businesses and homes improve connectivity with grants worth up to £3,500 when part of a community project.

Airband’s experience in building reliable rural broadband networks allows us to confidently navigate the application process on your behalf.

Broadband that meets your needs all day, every day.

Ultrafast

A glitch-free experience, no delay, no lag, no buffering.

No price hikes

No mid-contract price increase. Guaranteed.

How Project Gigabit works

We’ll do the admin so your role is simple: apply and reply.

Find out if you’re eligible by checking your coverage. Then register your interest and encourage your community to do the same.
If you qualify*, Airband will send you an order form which outlines the project quote.
Once we’ve got your order, we’ll request your Project Gigabit Voucher from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). DCMS will issue your voucher, and Airband will plan your fibre connection.
You’ll need to respond to two emails from DCMS. First, to confirm your application. Second, to confirm you’re receiving a full fibre broadband service from Airband. Look out for emails sent from the address [email protected].

We’ll keep you posted on the progress of your community project. Any questions, we’re happy to help – email [email protected].

*Eligibility criteria
Your connection speed is currently less than 100Mbps
A gigabit capable broadband network is not currently planned or likely to be built
You will commit to a broadband package from Airband once it’s live as Project Gigabit only helps fund the cost of the network installation.
Vouchers are worth £1,500 for homes and £3,500 for businesses part of an Airband Community Project
