CPRE East Midlands
Campaigning for the beauty, tranquillity and diversity of the countryside

CPRE East Midlands Regional Group is here!

Litter-pick in 2009

The Campaign to Protect Rural England is here to help you look after the environment, the beauty and tranquillity of our living countryside, and the wildlife habitats that make England so special. We're campaigning to keep what's best about rural life, in a living landscape, and fighting to keep rural issues high on the political agenda. Far from being po-faced NIMBYs, we also have a lot of fun doing it! 

Whatever English county you live in, there will be a CPRE branch near you. And if you'd like to join our organisation, in order to get involved with either a national issue or a local campaign, you can find details here.

Check out CPRE's manifesto for the 2010 General Election!

As a CPRE member you can get discounted entry to over 200 houses and gardens across England. Find out where! You can also find your nearest Farmer's Market, something to savour even if you're a non-member of our organisation. Or indulge your love of the countryside by visiting one of the many Game Fairs in our region.
