Mission Mission: We're the people who connect homes, mobile phone masts, schools, shops, banks, hospitals, libraries, broadcasters, governments and businesses – large and small – to the world.
It’s our mission to build the best possible network with the highest quality of service, and make sure that everyone in Britain can be connected.
Description Openreach Limited is wholly owned by British Telecommunications plc and we run Britain’s digital network business.
We’re a wholesaler and have around 31,000 people who work on behalf of more than 600 communication providers. So that’s businesses like Sky, TalkTalk, Vodafone and BT. Our fibre broadband network is the biggest in the UK, and enables over 27 million homes and business premises to access superfast broadband services of over 30Mbps. Our technology is the platform for Britain’s thriving digital economy, which is the largest of the G20 countries.
We’re working hard to give people the service and broadband speeds they need at work and at home. Over the last decade, we’ve invested more than £11 billion into our network. And we now manage more than 165 million kilometres of cable, from Scotland to Cornwall, and from Wales to the east coast. But we’re not stopping there – we’re making superfast broadband available to thousands more homes and businesses every week.
Gigaclear is one of the fastest and most reliable broadband networks in the UK. Delivered only to rural areas of England we are proud to deliver better broadband than is available to most towns and cities. Everyone connected to the network has the same level of service regardless of 'distance from the cabinet' or weather conditions. With ultrafast, pure fibre broadband, available to every one of our customers, rural communities will be ready to meet the demands of Internet services of the future.
