Online Consultation

Can you access the services you require?

The ability of rural residents to access services has become a daily problem for many, often being costly, time-consuming and awkward. The closure of local services and facilities and their increasing centralisation in urban centres, have left many rural and isolated communities without easy access to shops, doctor’s surgeries, dentists, social services, advice and guidance amongst others. This has meant that travelling to access daily essential services has become a regular feature of many people’s lives.

Action in rural Sussex is very keen to find out how significant a problem accessing services can be, how long it takes, how much it costs, and which services are accessible and those that are not.   

Please give 5 minutes to fill in the survey and provide us with the evidence to support the argument for more accessible service provision in rural Sussex.
