Our 2010 'Walks & Talks' programme kicks off with a guided tour of Portsmouth in April. Led by CPRE member Jackie Baynes, the tour will look at some less visited parts of Portsmouth, following a trail of places and buildings connected to famous people who were born, lived or worked in the city.
Recent press releases highlight winners of the 2009 Countryside & Design awards.

Nominations are now open for the 2010 awards.
CPRE has objected strongly to the proposal for two large turbines proposed for Wether Down, within what will be part of the South Downs national Park.
While supportive of renewable energy per se, CPRE believes that the impact on the landscape for this proposal would be highly detrimental to the natural beauty of the designated landscape. It has welcomed recent comments by Energy and Climate minister, Ed Miliband.
Latest: This campaign has been successful. The application has been withdrawn.
CPRE and the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust have worked together to produce a creative and inspiring litter education pack for schools and young children: 'How to run a whole school litter campaign'.
It is being launched in Hampshire through Liss Junior School's 'citizenship week'.
These are the words of our chairman, John Venning, introducing our new annual publication Hampshire Views.
"We are a positive creative outfit, campaigning for the things we believe will make people's lives better".
This publication is packed with news of our activities and how you can help.
This was the theme of the 2026 Vision for the Countryside, described by CPRE Chief Executive at our AGM on 20th May at Shawford Parish Hall.
Also Chairman John Venning described the new à la carte approach to campaign volunteering.
Yes - the areas shown on the campaign postcard - Western Weald, Chalk Hills, Lewes and Ditchling - are all in the new South Downs National Park announced on 31st March.
Thanks to all who supported us in this campaign to protect a vital part of our local landscape.
