Humber & Wolds Rural Action at Wilderspin
Humber and Wolds Rural Action (HWRA) are now based at Wilderspin, in the Aelberry Building.
HWRA support and encourage rural communities to develop, so they can influence their own futures and secure a range of community facilities and services.
There are around 11,000 rural communities across Britain ranging from small hamlets to bustling market towns, all with their own individual character and economy. However, rural communities now find themselves at a cross-roads and action is essential in order to generate more sustainable communities and lifestyles, offering a better quality of life for all who live in the countryside, not just the affluent who can afford to live there.
With global pressures such as climate change, an ageing population and long lasting constraints on public spending, it is time to generate a new vision for our rural communities that delivers better services in different ways. Only then can we provide for the needs of both current and future generations that live, work and play in the countryside.
