Residents in Goring are calling for broadband access to speed up Internet communications.

Pressure group Broadband 4 Goring has compiled a list of 450 people who want the faster service.

It is trying to ensure that at least three-quarters of them lodge advance orders with British Telecom before a deadline of January 22.

Co-ordinator Catherine Darling said: "There is a huge number of residents and businesses in Goring who need broadband.

"We're hoping BT will put in the necessary hardware early next year."

She said the village school and library already had broadband, but the wider community needed it too, particularly people working from home.
