45. Our journey continues…..

46. What do our patients think? The telemed literally brought tomorrows technology into my living room today; without any need to travel I can talk to a specialist!. The system puts me in control of my diabetes care instead of my illness governing or interfering with my lifestyle. There is no expensive journey to and from hospital (2 bus journeys each way), no reorganising of work commitments to then spend time sitting around in waiting rooms: simply a live link up where I can talk freely and we can swap ideas as to how to improve my life The consultation is an active two way process…it makes a huge difference to how I feel about my diabetes and therefore about myself

54. The Vision and the Challenge Our vision is to bring the advantages of high-quality broadband to 100% of businesses and citizens in North Yorkshire. We want to enable them to participate in the digital world so that they can carry out their business when and how they wish So- How do we do this: in the largest rural county (3,000 sq miles) with a dispersed population (average of 7.5 people per sq kilometre) Whilst maximising the value of the existing work NYnet core currently provided by BT Over 75% market capture of public sector Proven business and community initiatives With Public sector funding from ERDF and BDUK (but not enough)

55. Current Achievements: NYnet Core Network A carrier class network paid for by public sector use (PSN now conveying 75% of traffic) Core network sufficiently robust for wholesale backhaul MiniPoP layer currently more suited for public sector PSN

56. Proven principle at existing NYnet not spot pilots High capacity fibre provision to public sector site/ school 20-50Mb extended to digital hub in community Wireless network access infrastructure Community SP provides service at 5Mb/ 10Mb to customers Reaching the Pilot Communities
