We are a small Bedfordshire based charity and a local branch of CPRE Campaign to Protect Rural England. We work for a sustainable future for Bedfordshire's countryside by:

• Campaigning and engaging with the local planning process to influence planning decisions that impact our countryside in the areas of Bedford Borough, Central Bedfordshire and Luton Borough.
• Running our Living Countryside Awards to recognise the people, projects and enterprises that are enhancing our rural and urban environments - our 2018 Awards will take the scheme into its eighth year.
• Running events and other activities to promote to our members and the public the importance of our countryside and our work, and to support communities in their efforts to protect their local environment.
