To support the its vision the LRP implements a range of initiatives which improve the provision of services in towns and villages.
Leicestershire is predominantly a rural county: with 55% of the population living in rural parishes. Harborough and Melton Districts tend to have smaller and more sporadic settlements, whereas districts in the north and the west of the county have more regenerative needs.
Rural Leicestershire is diverse, both in terms of its landscape, its economy and the people that live within it. This diversity is reflected in our approach to supporting communities who live in the rural areas of the county.
