Leave a gift in your will
A retreat to recharge from city life. A place for adventure. A haven of tranquillity and solitude. We’ve benefited from the countryside’s healing qualities. And now, our countryside needs us.
By leaving a gift to CPRE in your will, you’ll help us continue to promote, enhance and protect the countryside you know and love for years to come.

Help us protect the countryside
Your gift could help to tackle the climate emergency, enhance our Green Belt and improve sustainable access or ensure that every child experiences a night under the stars and learns more about the natural world.
Make a difference with 1%
Anyone can leave a gift in their will, and every gift, however large or small, makes a difference. Even 1% of your estate can create a legacy that supports the future of the countryside.
CPRE has received gifts in wills from all corners of our community. We are very grateful to all friends and supporters who have remembered CPRE in this way. Their gifts today will help ensure our experts, campaigners and volunteers can continue their work after we are gone.

How Serena made a lasting difference
Mrs Serena Moore nee Denholm-Young, whose family came from Pickering.
This incredible lady left a substantial legacy to CPRE for the protection of the North and East Yorkshire landscape (but not for administration). This enables us to continue our work and plan for the future. This most generous and overwhelming legacy illustrates the passion and commitment to North and East Yorkshire by people from the local area. Such a legacy illustrates the confidence people hold in CPRE formed in 1929 to prevent urban sprawl.
We shall continue to work hard to ensure North and East Yorkshire’s landscape is protected. If only we could have thanked Mrs Serena Moore nee Denholm-Young in person.
