4/ Inside: who to talk to, five actions you can take, checklists to “rural-proof” your local plan, and ready-made letters to your MP and strategic authority. Built on @CCRI_UK / Rural Housing Network research. Free to use, free to share. englishrural.org.uk/rural-de…

3/ The rural gap in numbers:
➡️ 8.8x house prices to local lower-quartile earnings
➡️ +73% rural homelessness since 2018
➡️ 32% social housing construction since 2012.
Evidence beats emotion. The toolkit gives you both. englishrural.org.uk/rural-de… #RuralHousingWeek

2/ Devolution will decide where homes get built for the next 20+ years. Every new strategic authority must write a Spatial Development Strategy. If it doesn't name rural housing need, villages lose out. Our toolkit shows communities how to change that. englishrural.org.uk/rural-de…

Fishing is tough on the body.
That’s why FREE physiotherapy for fishermen in Wales is a game-changer - early treatment, less pain, more time doing the job you love. Self-refer or come to our next events @thefishmish @seahospital @Welsh_Fishermen @WG_fisheries @YourFishingNews
