This page will be used to post useful information for rural service providers in Gloucestershire. It is currently under development but in future we will be adding links to useful websites, as well as articles of interest.

Community Shops
Please find in the right hand panel, the Gloucestershire Community Shops Network Newsletter. Community owned shops are an excellent alternative option to be considered by communities who have lost their local shop through closure or relocation. Gloucestershire Community Shops Network promotes mutual support and if your community is interested in this option, GRCC and its partners within the Rural Services Support Group can help you.

Rural Services Support Group
The Rural Services Support Group is a partnership of public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations aiming to identify and address issues affecting rural services in Gloucestershire, with the current focus being directed towards post offices. Please find an introduction to the RSSG in the right hand panel.
