Delivering for Rural

Delivering for Rural - A Roadmap to Rural Success

A sixth of the population of England live in rural areas. 

Everyone deserves a chance to live in a thriving community that enables them to reach their full potential.   

With the incoming new Government, the Rural Services Network is poised to provide support and guidance to both Ministers and MPs to ensure that they can:

  • Listen to the needs of rural communities
  • Understand the challenges they face
  • Take action to support their potential

 The Rural Services Network, as the national champion for rural services has put together a series of asks which we want to see the new Government adopt.  The challenges rural communities face cannot be tackled in isolation, our communities need homes they can afford, with good jobs, connectivity to enable businesses to grow and access to public services that are fairly funded.
