Passionate about the Gloucestershire countryside

"As the evening falls, the lowering sun picks out the mellow ochre tower of Gloucester Cathedral, some ten miles distant. What a county. And thank heavens CPRE is here to help protect it." The newest addition to Members' Corner is up and it's a beauty! https://www.cpreglos.org.uk/members-corner/

"By planting more trees and hedgerows, restoring peatlands and moving towards a more sustainable way of farming, we can use nature's toolbox to capture greenhouse gases from the air while revitalising our natural environments."

9 in 10 rural areas are unaffordable for care workers in the private rented sector! @CPRE and @EnglishRural call on the Chancellor to invest in well-designed, genuinely affordable housing for key workers in the communities they serve. https://www.cpreglos.org.uk/news/homes-for-rural-heroes-huge-lack-of-affordable-homes-for-key-workers-in-rural-areas/ #RuralHousingWeek

As we start to slowly emerge from the pandemic we need to regenerate our rural economies, regenerate our green spaces, and regenerate ourselves. #JoinTheRegeneration by supporting our work, donate here: https://donate.giveasyoulive.com/donate?cid=20723&utm_campaign=Donatebutton&utm_content=20723&wl=1&br=18&bc=ea6f44 #greenrecovery #rural #greenspaces #Gloucestershire
