This year the focus will be on what support from our members and supporters has enabled us to do.

It'll be covering lots of the things we've worked on this year including #wildflowers, supporting more #LocalAction group, demystifying the complexities of the planning system and helping people take action.

We'll also be looking ahead to 2023 and the Living Countryside Awards. Our overarching theme will be celebration so there'll be a nice positive vibe!
