About Us

Conservative Future Countryside unlike other rural campaign groups believes that the interests of the countryside are best served by the Conservative Party and actively works to encourage the development of party policy.  To this end they work closely alongside Conservative Rural Action Group (CRAG), and other rural groups to unite like minded people and enable young people to become engaged in the future of the Countryside through politics, addressing the issues that really matter to them.

Members of Conservative Future Countryside are encouraged and supported to provide time to champion Pro-Countryside Conservative Candidates (urban and rural).  In addition between elections CFC provides a network of contacts enabling young people to get involved in contributing to the daily and future life of their communities often under threat.   

This participation may include for example:

  • Becoming a member of their local Parish Council
  • Getting involved in running a local event (country show etc)
  • Support in setting up a new rural business network
  • Co-coordinating pro-countryside events for example town centre education events
  • Standing for a District or County Council

While primarily rural, some members of Conservative Countryside live in urban areas and CFC provides a network of rural links and events recognising the obvious fact that the Conservatives are a political party for the whole country.
