The Rural Services Network (RSN) in partnership with the Citizens Advice Rural Issues Group have launched a rural cost of living household survey!

Independent research commissioned by the RSN in summer last year shows rural areas are suffering more acutely from the cost of living crisis compared to urban areas.

To lend more weight to the argument for more funding for rural areas the RSN is calling on as many rural residents as possible to complete a Rural Cost of Living Household Survey. 

The purpose of the survey is to understand more about rural household budgets at, what is, a very difficult time for many.

Research has shown that those living in rural areas face extra costs and we now want to explore the impacts for households.

But they need your help and want to receive as many survey responses as possible, whatever your household’s income or financial position. This will help them to engage more effectively with Government Departments, MPs and other policy makers.

The survey closes on Friday 31 March 2023.
