Slides from Tove Valley Broadband evening
Abthorpe Broadband Association Limited (ABA) is a not-for-profit limited-by-guarantee company. ABA has been delivering broadband to the communities of Abthorpe and Slapton for the last ten years. The enterprise has expanded with Tove Valley Broadband supplying WiFi broadband to the villages of Abthorpe, Slapton, Wappenham, Lois Weedon and Weston.
Recently, ABA held an information evening for other villages in the county who might be interested in setting up a group to obtain superfast broadband and the slides from the evening can be downloaded here along with the associated notes here.
