Health

The health of the individual and of the community is paramount, and begins with food security. It includes having proper nutrition, appropriate exercise, preventative steps and adequate treatment capacity for local and wider emergencies.

While rural areas often have poorer access to hospitals and General Practitioners, there are other steps to sustainably improve the health of a community eg. encouraging more exercise say with walking and cycling; working outdoors say on growing your own food, where you have control over the fertilisers and pesticides; regular community meetings and meals to help prevent feelings of isolation and depression.
