The Scottish Government is investing in broadband infrastructure in your area through its Reaching 100% (R100) programme and we’re keen to get your support to help gather feedback.
The £600+ million programme is extending access to faster broadband to sub-30 Megabits per second homes and businesses who are unlikely to receive upgrades through commercial plans. You can find out more about R100 at: gov.scot/digitalconnectivity.
To understand whether and how households and organisations have benefited from R100, the Scottish Government is undertaking an evaluation of the programme. As part of this, we are surveying households and organisations who:
- Are scheduled to receive broadband access via R100 but have not yet been connected
- Have been provided with broadband access via R100 and have taken up the connection
- Have been provided with broadband access via R100 but have not taken up the connection
The surveys are available online and can be accessed at https://tinyurl.com/R100Evaluation
The surveys are only open to properties covered by the R100 programme. If a property is covered by the programme, the associated address will come up as an option when the property postcode is entered by the survey respondent.
Our ask of you
In a bid to reach as many residents as possible, we’re asking if you – as the local Community Council for the area – would you be able to help promote the survey in the local community by sharing the link and QR code via email and social media.
We’ve also attached a poster advertising the survey. We’d really appreciate it if you were able to display this across the community.
The deadline for all survey responses is currently 3 March 2025.
If you have any questions, please contact: R100Evaluation@stantec.com.
