Hello everyone!

I hope this post finds you well :)

I've initiated a community for Rutland in the aim of having gateways spaced throughout the county. If you didn't know, Rutland is a very small county with a small population and so a larger community seemed more appropriate than many smaller ones!

I work across many sites within Rutland and neighbouring Stamford and hope to utilise some of said sites for locating gateways.

What I am aiming to achieve is a majority coverage of Rutland.

Please, if you live in or around Rutland, feel free to help contribute to both the community and my aim!

Thank you!
Laurence
