At the RSA we believe wherever possible it is vital to be in the “field” so that in an everchanging marketplace we can keep abreast of new developments and also practise what we preach ie best practice, higher shop standards and better marketing of the local shop.

Working with many of our sponsors and also local rural organizations we aim to run different projects all over the country to gain information to help inform retailers of opportunities and also, in some cases, help with our lobbying campaigns at Westminster.
