For thriving countryside and green spaces that benefit everyone

Join us

We are the countryside charity

We work across Lancashire, the Liverpool City Region and Greater Manchester, with communities, businesses and government, to stand up for our countryside and local green spaces.

Our very special 100th birthday gift!

Our regional chair Lindsay was presented with an original copy of the Lancaster & Morecambe Regional Planning Scheme – led by Patrick Abercrombie and written by John Henry Forshaw.

Join the team!

Want to help out? We have a number of volunteer vacancies we’re looking to fill.

September was a month long celebration of our love for our green spaces...

Thank you everyone who shared their countryside stories and put their favourite green space on our map.
