Activities & Mission

We are a volunteer-run charity set up to support countryside conservation and management schemes across NE Surrey and adjoining urban fringe areas of South London. We do this principally via raising funds in order to provide grants to further our aims. These include enhancing the local landscape, maintaining biodiversity in rare habitats and promoting access to the countryside for everyone.
