Typical topics include unemployment, loss of traditional shops, the growth of out of town shopping, crime, and traffic congestion. The campaign is unique in concentrating on the interests of market towns, giving you a national voice, and the opportunity to make representations to national policy makers. Action for Market Towns , an initiative of the Rural Development Commission, is a membership only organisation. It is open to all centres which are the focus of their surrounding rural areas.
