We need 5 minutes of your time!

North Lincolnshire Council secured £2.6m under the government’s BDUK (Broadband Delivery UK) rural broadband programme to develop the project on behalf of North and North East Lincolnshire Councils. 

Together with match funding, this brings the total investment locally to over £5m. We now need to attract competitive bids from telecoms providers to install the actual infrastructure, but before we do we need individuals and businesses across Northern Lincolnshire to register their interest so that we can show our demand for better broadband.

Could you support us in promoting the need for the surveys to be completed?

New Benefit Changes Advice

Benefit cap is coming

Over the next fortnight, thousands of households will start receiving letters from the government warning them they may soon lose some of their benefits.The government is writing to all families it believes are at risk of having their benefits cut when the overall benefit cap is introduced in April 2013.

The cap, part of the Welfare Reform Act, will impose an upper limit on the total amount of benefit an out-of-work household can receive, set at the level of average take-home pay for a working household. From April 2013, the government will look at the amount a household receives from a range of benefits – including housing benefit, jobseeker's allowance, employment support allowance, child benefit, child tax credit and carer's allowance – and add them together to come up with an overall total.

If it comes to more than the national cap then housing benefit payments will be reduced.

This will be the first direct contact the government has made with the 67,000 households in Great Britain at risk of seeing their benefits capped.
