HAMPSHIRE-based IT solutions company Medhurst Communications Ltd will be supplying new computer systems at Southampton's Nuffield theatre.

The new network will provide a faster and more secure environment for all the staff employed at the theatre, which is set in the university grounds.

Adam Neale, marketing and development officer at The Nuffield, said: "Today's consumer has become more discerning when it comes to using technology to make their social lives easier.

"It was clear that we had to meet these requirements in order to hold on to our position within the local area."
