Partnerships

Rural Progress Hub considers collaborations and partner placements that are relevant to readers interested in rural places and their development. We keep commercial material distinct from independent editorial coverage and label partner relationships clearly.

Possible collaborations

We consider subject-focused collaborations, clearly marked partner features and placements across the website where the topic fits our remit. A proposal should explain the intended audience, material, placement and any commercial relationship. We do not infer an existing relationship from a mention or proposal.

Clear labelling

Partner and paid material is identified so readers can distinguish it from editorial work. Labels are placed with the material they describe, and an arrangement does not imply that the editorial desk endorses every claim made by a partner.

Editorial boundaries

Partnerships cannot purchase independent coverage or determine our editorial conclusions. We may decline proposals that are unrelated to the publication, unclear about their purpose or incompatible with a careful, reader-first approach. Send proposals through the Contact page.
