Business in Gloucestershire
Gloucestershire has the highest concentration of cyber security businesses in the country outside London at Cheltenham, anchored by Golden Valley, and a genuine industrial and aerospace engineering base a few miles away at Gloucester. The two sit close enough that the security expectations of one flow into the supply chain of the other. Cheltenham adds a Regency spa town with a festival and racing economy that fills it several times a year; Gloucester adds regenerated docks and distribution on the M5.

Gloucestershire — common questions
Cheltenham has a lot of professional and financial firms. What do they usually ask about?
Call recording and what happens to it — retention, access logging and where it is stored — because that is what their own compliance obligations and their clients ask them. The technology is straightforward; the decisions are not, and an indefinite archive of every call is more to protect and more to disclose than a targeted one.
We are in Stroud or the rural west of the county. Is fibre available?
Address by address, and genuinely variable — the valleys here are one of the places where full fibre reaches one village and stops before the next. Where it has not arrived a 4G or 5G circuit is a real answer and is deliverable in days. We would check the postcode and tell you what is actually there rather than what the area map suggests.
Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?
We work across Gloucestershire generally, and we have pages for Cheltenham, Gloucester and Stroud because those are the places we are most often in. Mike O'Shea is based in Clevedon and covers the county. If your town is not listed it does not mean we cannot help — it means nobody has written that page yet, so ring and ask.
Who would I actually be dealing with in Gloucestershire?
Mike O'Shea, directly, on 0117 325 8531. Not an account queue and not a different person each time. Behind that sits the Southern Communications Group — the carrier relationships, the buying power and a support desk that runs around the clock — so a small business in Gloucestershire is priced inside a national account while dealing with someone local.
What does SCG Solutions do for businesses in Gloucestershire?
Cloud telephony and Microsoft Teams calling, business internet from broadband to leased lines, business mobiles across every major UK network, and network security — with IT support, cloud hosting and business continuity behind them. What that looks like in practice varies a lot across Gloucestershire, which is why each town has its own page rather than one county-wide answer.
We have sites in more than one Gloucestershire town. Can that be one system?
Yes, and it is usually cheaper as well as simpler. One cloud phone system spans every site with internal dialling between them, one bill rather than several, and calls that can be answered at whichever site has someone free. Multi-site is the case where the group buying power tells most, because you are pricing several connections and licence counts at once rather than one.
The 2027 switch-off affects Gloucestershire too. Every analogue and ISDN line in the UK stops working in January 2027. If you are not sure what that means for your lines, the detail is worth ten minutes.
