A new pamphlet, Rural Futures: The British Countryside and its Potential, has been published by the Fabian Society and The Countryside Charity (CPRE). Launched during the recent Labour Party Conference, it brings together contributions from parliamentarians, policy specialists, and sector leaders.
The publication stresses that the countryside should be seen not only as a place of heritage and beauty but also as a driver of economic, social, and environmental renewal. Topics explored include housing, land use, transport, digital connectivity, and community health.
As part of the pamphlet, RSN’s Chief Executive, Kerry Booth, was invited to contribute Chapter 9: The NHS in the Country. Kerry’s essay sets out how health and care services can be delivered in ways that meet the distinct challenges faced by rural communities.
