By using an invisible DNA marker that links criminals to crime scenes, we’ve helped reduce instances of cable theft in the UK by 30% 💪 This is just part of our wider efforts to tackle infrastructure theft, which can cause major disruption to phone and broadband connections, and even put vulnerable people at risk. We will also continue to work with other key stakeholders like Crimestoppers Trust, the National Crime Agency (NCA), British Transport Police, and Network Rail to further clamp down on crime related to our network.

About us
Openreach is the UK's digital network business. We’re 30,400 people who connect homes, mobile phone masts, schools, shops, banks, hospitals, libraries, broadcasters, governments and businesses - large and small - to the world. Our mission is to build the best possible network, with the highest quality service, making sure that everyone in Britain can be connected. We work on behalf of more than 600 communications providers like SKY, TalkTalk, Vodafone, and BT, and our fibre broadband network is the biggest in the UK, passing more than 27 million premises. We’re also the platform for Britain’s thriving digital economy, which is the largest in the G20. We’re working hard to give people the speeds they need to run and enjoy their daily lives. Over the last decade, we’ve invested more than £11 billion into our network and we now manage more than 160 million kilometres of cable stretching from Scotland to Cornwall, from Wales to the east coast. And we’re continuing to take that network further - making superfast broadband speeds available to thousands more homes and businesses every week.

📢 Publicly driven broadband programmes in Scotland have now provided over one million superfast broadband connections! 📢 “Today's milestone marks a massive engineering success, connecting people and businesses from Shetland to Stranraer.” Fraser Rowberry's words are a testament to the achievement. We’re proud of the work we've put in to deliver these programmes and the strides we continue to make to boost connectivity and infrastructure across Scotland. We visited Highland Fling Bungee with Wellbeing Economy Secretary Màiri McAllan MSP of The Scottish Government to see how faster broadband helps rural businesses.

At Openreach we’ve identified the perfect brew, and it appears milk is out as stronger shades of tea are preferred ☕ But while 24 per cent of us prefer a good old-fashioned cuppa, the survey revealed we’re actually a workforce of coffee drinkers, with it being the preferred hot beverage overall. Whether you prefer a coffee or a cuppa, one thing we all agreed on is washing it down with a Chocolate Digestive 😉 #NationalTeaDay

When installing #FullFibre for Zen Internet customer Kieran, his location and the existing infrastructure made the job more complex than usual ❌ So, with our Drone Co-ordinator Gary Taylor's help, we took to the skies to complete the installation in an efficient and cost-effective way 🛫 Watch the video to see how some innovative thinking can provide customers with Full Fibre broadband no matter what scenario.

#Broadband is now an essential part of our life, both at home and work 💻📱 This why we're working closely alongside housing developers to ensure residents will be able to connect to #FullFibre on the Openreach network as soon as possible 🙌 Take a look at how this was implemented at a new build site in Swansea 👇

Ewe won't believe this! 😯🐑 She was lost and heading towards a main road when our brilliant engineers Miles and Jordan picked her up. They were busy working on a #FullFibre installation near Dulverton West Somerset, but managed to bring her home. Excellent work guys 🎆
