Scotland: National Rural Network
Ever wished you could find out what people are really thinking? Well, now you can - and you don't have to be a mindreader! A new feature on the Rural Network website means you'll be able to design and launch your own consultation about any subject you want.
Whether you're trying to gauge interest in a local service or demonstrating support for a new funding application, the Rural Network Consultations Page will enable you to find out what people are really thinking, and to make sure your voice is heard.
