The countryside champions

Welcome to CPRE London

Welcome to our new website. Here you will find about our activities and be able to download reports on our work. You may wonder why the 'Campaign to Protect Rural England' is active in London. The answer is simple: London has open spaces and beautiful surrounding countryside which we want to protect. We also want to improve the quality of life in London, and ensure it is the best capital city in the world.

We hope you will join us to make London a better place in which to live and work.

Donald Mitchell, Chairman


Standing up for the Countryside in London

CPRE London is a charity campaigning for the countryside in London. We seek to complement the work of protecting rural England in other parts of the country. We want a beautiful, diverse and living town and country that everyone can enjoy. It is only through vigorous campaigning that we can achieve our ambition of making England a better place for present and future generations.


Our Vision

Our vision is of London as a prosperous world city. The challenge is for a better use of land and stewardship of natural resources. London should have a vibrant economy and surrounded by a pleasant countryside. London should become a sustainable city with low carbon and less waste. We want to encourage a keen sense of place, with better urban design and greener, safer neighbourhoods.
