WHO WE ARE At GoFibre we're on an exciting journey to revolutionise broadband capabilities for homes and businesses in rural towns and villages across Scotland and the north of England, connecting communities and affording them digital capability equal to their city counterparts; whilst being as environmentally conscious as possible, and creating social value in the areas we serve.

No two days are the same; the landscape is constantly changing, and we think on our feet, move fast and tackle challenges and opportunities head on.
