The key person showing is Andy Burton who left the company some time ago. Please remove.

'cloud infrastructure service Rise, and has operations in the United States' 'and also launched a reseller hosting service in the United States.[10] Cloud infrastructure service Rise was launched in 2010.[11] Fasthosts is the founding sponsor of The Great Exhibition 2012.[12]'

Rise is no longer a part of Fasthosts, nor do they have a presence in the United States or participate in the exhibition mentioned. Please remove these sections too.

Additional information that would add to the comprehensiveness of the article and explain the core business purpose of the company:

Fasthosts is a leading hosting technology provider. Operations are run out of state of the art wholly owned data centres with 24/7 onsite engineers, phone and online support. Solutions include Virtual Private Servers, Dedicated Servers, Hosted Exchange email, Online Backup, secure online storage, Web Hosting and Domain registrations.

Sorry but the suggested addition is far too promotional, Wikipedia articles are written from a neutral point of view and should not read like advertisements. We don't usually remove information just because it's no longer current, we put it in the past tense. Can you tell me what happened to Rise and the US operations?
