What's Happening with Broadband in Loughborough Ashby?
Loughborough Ashby is in a strong position for broadband in 2026. Full fibre (FTTP) is available here at speeds up to ~896 Mbps, delivered over Openreach's national fibre network.

Availability at the postcode level can vary, so it is worth checking your specific address.
No Openreach expansion announcements specific to Loughborough Ashby or the wider Charnwood area were found in the trade press at the time of writing. The absence of a specific announcement is not unusual for areas where Openreach has already completed a build. If you are in a new-build development or a flat without a confirmed connection, it is worth checking directly with your landlord or developer as well as running the postcode checker below.
On the altnet side, CityFibre has a significant footprint in Leicestershire through partners such as Vodafone and TalkTalk, and is worth checking for competitive pricing alongside Openreach-based ISPs. For rural parts of the Charnwood borough, Gigaclear operates in parts of the East Midlands, though coverage in urbanised areas like Loughborough Ashby is typically served by Openreach.
One national change worth knowing about: the old copper phone network (PSTN) is being switched off by January 2027. If you or someone in your household still uses a landline over the copper network, including for care alarms or monitored security systems, you will need to move to a digital voice service before that date. Your current provider should contact you, but it is worth raising proactively if you have not heard anything.
