Local Action
Lancashire CPRE is your regional branch covering Lancashire and Greater Manchester. Spanning a wide area such as Lancaster, Chorley, Ormskirk, Sefton, Bury, and St Helens to name a few.
Our aim is promoting and encouraging the improvement, protection and preservation of the countryside, its towns and villages and the better development of the rural and urban environment, for the benefit of everyone.
We do this by encouraging people to have a positive attitude towards the planning system.
We aim to influence the planning system at Government, regional, county and local level, so people and places are put before profit.
