New force for rural regeneration launched
Howard Lake | 4 March 2003 | News
A new independent organisation dedicated to finding practical, progressive solutions to the problems and challenges facing rural communities starts operating today.
The Rural Regeneration Unit (RRU), which is structured as a not-for-profit company, will be politically and financially non-aligned. It seeks to assist relevant government departments and agencies, public sector bodies and charitable foundations in translating public policy into grass-root action and self-help.
The RRU’s current intiatives include Food Co-operatives in Cumbria, Community Nutrition Development in Wales, and ‘Kids in the Countryside’ Scheme.
