This is the third year Wightfibre have sponsored Isle of Wight Radio’s Local Heroes Awards.
“Wightfibre takes great pride in being part of our Island community and in doing the best we can to give the Island the fastest possible broadband, great TV and the best possible service. At Wightfibre we care about our customers.
It makes perfect sense, therefore, for Wightfibre to join with Isle of Wight Radio to recognise other people on the island who also care and who go the extra mile in their contribution to the community. These are our Local Heroes. It reflects Wightfibre’s company ethos of ‘going the extra mile’ for our customers.” – WightFibre CEO, John Irvine
More details of the awards coming soon.
