Town or Country?

These days more than five in every six people in England live in an urban area.

But the best part of ten million.

Yes.

Nearly TEN MILLION PEOPLE.

Live in a RURAL area.

And many of them are struggling and there is a very REAL housing NEED.

It isn't all manor houses and decisions on whether the barn should be turned into a holiday let for city slickers...

Over ONE MILLION require social housing.

But guess what? This just ain't there...

So while many are focused on airspace developments and turning the local chip shop into a high-rise apartment block there is a big unsolved NEED.

Out there in the green fields, on the sides of hills and in the villages where there just isn't sufficient housing stock for the people.

There are different organisations which are focused on, have a deep, rich commitment to solutions and have special people leading the way.

Carolyn Howell, CEO of Solo Housing Association and Sarah Walker, housing consultant give their thoughts on a range of rural opportunities within the planning, development and various funding opportunities plus the challenges for those wanting to make a difference.
