Dear John,

I’m Jackie. You may not have had an email from me before, but you might have
seen me on TV. This year, I have appeared on BBC’s Countryfile, news features on
various channels, as well as interviews for radio and in the press, making
CPRE’s case for a thriving and beautiful countryside for everyone.

As a town and country planner acting for CPRE Lancashire, Liverpool City Region
and Greater Manchester group for over 10 years, I have helped stop harmful
development, such as the loss of irreplaceable habitats and farmers from losing
their homes and livelihoods by convincing decision makers that there were better
alternatives for building needed development.

Now in a campaigns role at national CPRE, I am seeking better planning rules
from the government to guide future decisions so that our countryside thrives
for the benefit of everybody, but we need your help to fight for it.

This is a crucial time for campaigning. Our precious and finite land is facing an onslaught of threats and we need to
make our arguments heard.

As a small charity which punches above its weight, we rely on donations to
continue our vital work. I know times are hard but if you can, please could I ask you to give to CPRE today?

Yes, I can donate now
[[link removed]]We must protect our countryside from thoughtless development and keep pushing
for a brownfield first approach. Just last week, the government announced plans
to prioritise building on an area of Green Belt land bigger than Surrey. These
plans instruct local authorities to meet higher local housing targets. Such a
large amount of Green Belt lost is destructive to both people and nature, and
will undermine a local plan-led system. We need more genuinely affordable and social homes, but in the right places.

We need a planning system for everyone. Our collective response to the consultation on national planning policy is just
the start of convincing the government that the countryside and the voices of
local communities should remain at the forefront of the National Planning Policy
Framework.

We need urgent commitments for rooftop solar. If we don’t keep up the pressure for solutions like this, our countryside will
be lost for good.

Please stand with us and make a donation today.

I'll make a donation
