Rural Coalition
The Rural Coalition comprises twelve national organisations who subscribe to a vision for a living and working countryside in England.
The Rural Coalition believes that no-one should be unfairly disadvantaged simply because of geography and that every rural resident should have fair access to jobs, to housing and to basic services, whilst every rural business should have the opportunity to grow and prosper. This includes being able to share in the opportunities that arise from the transition to net zero.
