Examples of recent projects include:

Establishing a rural network for England & local authority engagement
Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra)
Rose Regeneration and Newcastle University made recommendations to set up a Network to support the delivery of the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE). This included developing a contacts database and website to facilitate the exchange of information, experience and good practice. Rose Regeneration is working with the CRC to deliver a series of workshops for local authorities focused on ‘Maximising Rural Regeneration through RDPE’.
