West Midlands Rural Community Council Network (WMRCCN)

WMRCCN has been developed in response to the government trend towards regionalisation. It is an informal, non-constituted body consisting of the Chief Officers of the four RCCs in the region. They meet informally and have developed combined protocols and a business plan. The network also collaborates with other local and regional partners on rural issues. WMRCCN’s aims are to:

• Combat disadvantage and enhance service delivery to local communities

• Reflect the interests of rural communities to regional partners

• Facilitate the engagement of local communities in the regional strategic agenda

• Share expertise and good practice

• Build RCC capacity to deliver equitable services across the region.
