About us
CPRE Bedfordshire campaigns for a beautiful and living countryside. We work to protect, promote and enhance our towns and countryside in Bedfordshire to make them better places to live, work and enjoy, and to ensure the countryside is protected for now and future generations.
Name: Shelly Dennison
Role: Communications Officer (but I also do some volunteer hours in the office!)
Unlike many environmental charities, CPRE has no vested interests – we own no land, rely solely on donations and grants, and are politically independent.
We make decisions with the head not the heart, as much as we love the countryside, and we are possibly the only green group which has a completely holistic approach. Planning, in particular, is all about looking at the bigger picture, and our wide remit means we have to consider the whole of the country – rural and urban – when creating policy.
