We're rolling out full fibre in Darwen!

We've had a fantastic year with a number of recent industry wins, we were incredibly proud to take home “Best Innovator” and “Broadband Provider of the Year” at the 2023 Connected Britain Awards. We're now celebrating additional regional milestones, having passed 75,000 homes that can connect to our network in Lancashire, and adding Darwen to our rollout for better broadband.

We began building our network in Lancashire last year and our coverage has grown at great speed, with our full fibre infrastructure now servicing homes and businesses across a large pocket of West Lancashire, including Burnley, Hyndburn, Padiham and Blackburn to name a few. The launch of full fibre in Darwen will enable us to connect more than 100,000 homes across Lancashire to better broadband. This infrastructure will have a huge impact on the town, where full fibre access is currently less than 35% according to connectivity statistics from Think Broadband for Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council.

This brand new network marks a new era for high-speed internet connectivity in the region, empowering residents and businesses with incredible upload and download speeds and reliable broadband, in addition to providing the area with a choice in suppliers.

Speaking of the rollout, Regional Head for Lancashire, Darryl Nieuwenhuizen said, “Strong digital connectivity has become fundamental to our daily lives and we are proud to serve the community’s connectivity needs for decades to come. We’re thrilled to be able to include Darwen in our coverage.”

Brsk customers across Lancashire have been leaving some incredibly positive reviews after taking up full fibre. Hassan in Accrington said, “Just had an installation in Accrington. Very quick and easy install with no hassle. Extremely friendly and considerate. Internet was up and running before (the engineer) left and the speeds are excellent. Very very happy.”
Jordan, a customer in Burnley wrote on Trustpilot, “I'm very happy with my installation with you guys and I'm happy to be with you guys too. Thomas who came out and installed the fibre was amazing and very helpful! You've got a very happy customer.”

In addition to Lancashire, our full fibre network also covers South Manchester, the West Midlands and West Yorkshire.
