Community Benefits

We’re not only bringing you our 100Mbps - 10Gbps service as standard, we’re also delivering it at an incredible price (1). We beat the mainstream providers' ‘Ultrafast’ packages which give you slower speeds – especially when it comes to uploads.

• We’re a local employer - based in Eastbourne, East Sussex and provide all our customer support locally – no call centres abroad or faraway, we’re all in East Sussex.
• Whether you're homeworkers, online gamers - downloading the latest game or families streaming their favourite shows - you’ll now enjoy faster speeds and increased reliability, the like of which hasn’t been seen in Eastbourne & Hastings before.
• Our full fibre optic network uses 88% less greenhouse gas emissions per 1Gbps when compared to other access technologies (3). Helping to protect and improve the  environment in East Sussex.
• The connectivity our hyperfast full fibre network provides will encourage new companies to invest into the area, creating more local jobs and generating additional tax revenue for our councils, which goes towards local community services.
• Research (2) shows that once an area has a full fibre 1Gbps network, property prices and local economies are positively impacted. Imagine what Lightning Fibres’ 10Gbps network could bring…
• Plus, Lightning Fibre is fully committed to benefiting the community we all work and live in; we are continuing to sponsor & take part in local clubs & events, as well as donate to charities in East Sussex.
