CPRE is the countryside charity. We campaign to enhance, promote and protect the countryside for everyone’s benefit, today and for generations to come.

We aspire to connect people and the countryside, promoting and enhancing the health, wellbeing, social and environmental benefits of the countryside near where people live. We promote a practical, integrated and sustainable vision for rural life and we empower communities to build the capacity and skills to have a greater say in the future of their environment through active placemaking.

We believe a beautiful, thriving countryside is important for everyone, no matter where they live, and want people of all ages to have the opportunity to experience it.
