About us
We are CPRE, the Campaign to Protect Rural England. We stand up for the countryside, celebrate its value, and promote solutions to protect and regenerate it – now and for future generations.
There has never been more pressure on our countryside. From making space for nature to growing food, and from building homes to energy infrastructure, we’re asking so much of our finite land. At the same time, nature is in freefall. Climate change and extreme weather threatens to change our landscapes and the places that sustain us – for good.
But within this threat, there is opportunity. There is huge potential for positive change if we get it right.
Reducing and adapting to these critical risks needs joined-up thinking, and means landscapes will have to evolve too. At CPRE, we shape and promote solutions to protect and regenerate the countryside, and deliver projects that show tangible change is possible.
Whether it’s the CPRE groups across England protecting the places that matter to us all, or the volunteers powering positive change, our movement is built by local people who care about the future of the countryside.
