A team from rural communities who understand rural communities. RECs are tasked with keeping the lights on across vast expanses of land, facing higher costs with fewer customers to share the burden that their urban counterparts. Owned and steered by the communities they serve, they prioritize people over profits, with securing a sustainable future for their communities as the ultimate goal. We share that goal. Let’s start the conversation about how Perceptive Power can share that goal for your community. #RuralPower #RuralElectricCooperatives #DistributedGeneration

#Rural communities and small towns often feel left behind by current politics. As people and services leave, cynicism and resentment can set in. But it doesn't have to be this way. At Vibrant Systems, I am pioneering a #grassroots approach to #ruralrevitalization that puts your agenda and priorities first. Read about it in my latest article, or connect with me today!

Rural areas across the UK are often misunderstood by funders and policy makers as affluent places with no real deprivation or need, and that they are places that deserve little or significantly less investment. This stance overlooks the many hidden needs and inequities that exist in the countryside, leaving large swathes of the population disadvantaged simply because of where they live. More needs to be done to recognise and understand the intersectionality of the rural population and the marginalisation they face due to higher costs of living, lower wage employment opportunities and a lack of access to key services and connectivity. With many communities becoming more remote and facing a cycle of dormancy, exacerbated by business closures, service withdrawal and insufficient house building we believe that something needs to change. Plunkett UK advocates for the community ownership model as a way of addressing many of the challenges that currently exist in the countryside. To support this ambition however, we believe that there needs to be a comprehensive, cross-departmental rural strategy at the heart of Government. This is something we are pushing for along with other members of the Rural Coalition - [https://lnkd.in/e7kVbUMS]
📽️ “Many people think it's all about green and pleasant land when actually, in reality, there are many hidden needs that exist in rural areas.” Chris Cowcher, Plunkett UK’s Head of Policy and Communications, expresses our ask for the new Government to have a rural strategy, making sure that funding and support is in place to grow the rural community business network. #ruralcombiz
