About the Book

This study explores the interlocking effects of rurality and low income on children. Based on interviews with children in Somerset, it poses a series of questions on issues of significance to rural children. Central to the research was recognition that children and young people are best placed to describe their lives and experiences; their accounts form the core of the report. Whilst low income children were in no way singled out in the interview process, what emerges is a qualitatively different experience of rural life to their more affluent counterparts. The words of these young people convey how rurality and low income combine to create a more profound experience of physical and social isolation and exclusion. The text includes recommendations for local and national attention.
