We are excited to announce a 2024 patronage payment, a testament to the incredible progress we’ve made together over the past three years. Your support as a Gosfield Communications Co-operative member is the cornerstone of our success, enabling us to sustain and grow a truly local, member- focused organization.
The turnaround we’ve achieved has been remarkable. With stronger financial results and a renewed focus on service excellence, we are proving the power of cooperative values—putting people before profits and reinvesting in our community. Your membership is not just an investment in telecommunications services but in a shared commitment to quality, fairness, and local development.
This year saw us complete our ambitious SILEC fibre upgrade project a year ahead of schedule and $750,000 under budget. Nearly 50 km of fibre cable now delivers cutting-edge connectivity to our community, including over 100 additional homes beyond our original plan. This success is a direct reflection of efficient planning and the dedication of our local team—your neighbours and family.
Looking ahead, we’ve announced plans to amalgamate with Quadro Communications Co-operative, aligning two strong organizations with shared values and a focus on delivering exceptional service. Members will vote on this important decision at a Special General Meeting on December 2, 2024, at Cottam United Church (registration at 6:00 PM, meeting at 7:00 PM). Your voice is crucial as we shape the future of our co-operative.
We encourage you to share the benefits of Gosfield membership with your friends, family, and neighbours. With a history of equitable pricing, community sponsorships, and unmatched local presence, we stand out in a competitive market. By choosing Gosfield, members ensure that investments stay in the community and continue to support local families, charities, and sports organizations.
Your patronage payment, based on the services you hold with us (telephone, internet, and IPTV), will appear as a credit on your December invoice.
Thank you for being an integral part of Gosfield’s success. Together, we are building a stronger cooperative and a better-connected community.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors
Gosfield Communications Co-operative Limited
