Sheffield is the latest town to join the fast lane, as Grain Broadband kicks off the first phase of its Full Fibre network rollout – bringing next-generation connectivity straight to the doorsteps of local residents and businesses.

Grain’s independent Full Fibre network will provide thousands of homes across Sheffield with a dedicated fibre connection, offering symmetrical internet speeds of up to 1Gb. That means lightning-fast downloads, crystal-clear video calls, and reliable connections that don’t slow down at peak times.

"We're excited to offer Sheffield residents an internet service that can keep up with their digital lives," said Richard Cameron, CEO at Grain broadband.

"We're not just delivering faster internet; we are also saving customers a significant amount on their monthly broadband bill.

“Whether you're streaming your favourite shows, working from home or gaming, we're helping to build a more connected Sheffield."

The rollout begins this month, with the first customers set to be connected this Spring. Sheffield joins a growing list of Yorkshire towns enjoying Grain’s Full Fibre revolution, with areas like Bradford, Castleford, Grimsby, Halifax, Hull, Leeds and Scarborough already reaping the benefits. Residents and businesses can check availability and sign up at grainconnect.com/check/.

Through January, Grain is offering a special broadband deal with prices from £9.99/month for 250Mb upload and download speeds for early sign-ups. With no in-contract price rises, no installation fees, and a Price Match Guarantee, customers can sign up with confidence knowing they’re getting the best broadband deal on their street.

Residents who sign up now will have this deal held until work is complete on their street, and their home is ready to install. Interested residents can learn more and sign up now at grainconnect.com or by calling 0330 223 2266.
