We are CPRE, the countryside charity. We want a thriving, beautiful countryside for everyone.
We believe in countryside and green spaces that are accessible to all, rich in nature and playing a crucial role in responding to the climate emergency.
With a local CPRE group in every county in England, we’re advocating nationwide for the kind of countryside we all want: one with sustainable, healthy communities and available to more people than ever, including those who haven’t benefited before.
We stand for a countryside that enriches all of our lives, regenerating our wellbeing, and that we in turn regenerate, protect and celebrate.
Some people might remember us as ‘The Campaign to Protect Rural England’ – our previous name, and one of several in our long history. We’ve worked for almost a century to support and promote the countryside, and we’ll be doing this for generations to come. That’s why we call ourselves ‘the countryside charity’.
We’ve been stepping forward for the countryside for almost a century, and our work at national and local level is continuing to make an impact.
However you support us – through your time, voice or money – you’ll be joining a movement that is proud of the work we’ve done to help people live, work and play in the countryside we have today.
