At the start of the pandemic in March we took the decision to make online access to our news free of charge by taking down our paywall. At a time where accurate information about Covid-19 was vital to our community, this was the right decision – even though it meant a drop in our income. In order to help safeguard the future of our journalism, the time has now come to reinstate our paywall, However,
rest assured that access to all Covid related news will still remain free.
To access all other news will require a subscription, as it did pre-pandemic. The good news is that for the whole of December we will be running a special discounted offer to get 3 months access for the price of one month. Thank you for supporting us during this incredibly challenging time.

A MAJOR project aiming to make faster fibre-based broadband widely available across Cumbria has completed its final stage in a famous Lakeland village. Connecting Cumbria, a partnership between Cumbria County Council and Openreach, announced on Wednesday (December 23) the successful completion of the second and final phase of the scheme, which saw the village of Near Sawrey-home to Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top- be the final community to ‘go live.’ Seventy-six homes and businesses in the village can now access some of the fastest broadband speeds in the UK. Speeds of up to one gigabit bit per second (1Gbps) are available thanks to gigabit-capable Fibre-to-the-Premise (FTTP) technology, where fibre is run directly from the exchange all the way to each property.
