Read article >About Amphora Connect
Amphora Connect is part of the Amphora Group, owned by Colchester City Council. Since launching in 2017, our mission has been simple: bring faster, more reliable broadband to local homes and businesses, and reinvest in the community we serve.
Today, we operate one of the UK’s largest municipally owned full-fibre networks. Our infrastructure spans across Colchester, from the Northern Gateway to Friday Woods, and from Stanway to the University of Essex, with growing connections in surrounding towns.
We’re not just another broadband provider. We design, build, and manage our own network to ensure the best possible performance, reliability, and long-term value for our customers.
What makes us different
- Locally owned
- Backed by Colchester City Council
- Built for performance
- Full-fibre network with speeds up to 10Gbps
- Community-first
- Profits support local services and projects
Our network in action
Our connectivity powers more than just homes and businesses.
We support vital infrastructure across Colchester, including:
• City-wide connectivity projects
• CCTV networks across hundreds of locations
• Services that help residents live independently
From small businesses to major venues like Charter Hall and local sports clubs, we keep Colchester connected.
Colchester community commitment
We believe better connectivity creates stronger communities.
That’s why every pound we make is reinvested back into Colchester, supporting public services, improving infrastructure, and helping the city grow.
We’re proud to be a commercial business with a social purpose.
