Creative Rural Communities is a new regeneration and economic development initiative led by the Vale of Glamorgan Council in partnership with various public, private and voluntary sector organisations. The aim of the initiative is to give the people of the rural Vale the power to control the future of their communities.

Funding is enabling the partnership to help individuals, groups and communities throughout the rural Vale. Creative Rural Communities will provide vital support for a wide range of potential projects that will benefit those communities both now and in the future.

It is hoped that the initiative will capture the imagination of the people of the rural Vale and, through sharing work, goals and ultimately rewards, individuals can transform into proactive groups and make a real difference to the day-to-day lives of their communities.
