Boyd McCleary, Acting Chair, will talk about CPRE Hampshire’s highlights over the past year and what the future holds.
Once all the formalities have taken place we are delighted to welcome guest speaker, Craig Bennett. Craig is CEO of The Wildlife Trusts and former CEO of Friends of the Earth. He will be talking on the subject of “How the countryside can help tackle the climate emergency”.
Craig started as Chief Executive of The Wildlife Trusts in April 2020, with the ambition of putting a third of the UK’s land and sea into nature recovery by 2030.
He has been described as “one of the country’s top environmental campaigners”, by The Guardian as “the very model of a modern eco-general” and has been listed as one of the UK’s top “social media CEOs”.
Craig was previously CEO of Friends of the Earth where he refocussed the organisation on its unique role of empowering communities to take action to tackle the climate and ecological crisis. This resulted in a step-change in the scale and impact of the movement with over 200 new Friends of the Earth community groups set up during his tenure. Craig led Friends of the Earth to numerous campaign victories including on bees, fracking and against the expansion of Heathrow Airport.
Find out more about the event and Craig on Eventbrite.

Craig’s talk will begin at approximately 11am for 40 minutes with the remaining 20 minutes available for questions.
