Free exhibition of photographs from CPRE's photography competition marking the charity's 100th birthday, part of Storyhouse Futures.
Celebrating 100 Years of Rural Campaigning opens at Storyhouse on Monday 9 November, and it's free to visit. The exhibition brings together the winners and runners-up from a photography competition run by Campaign for Rural Protection Cheshire, which marked the 100th birthday of the national charity CPRE (Campaign to Protect Rural England).
CPRE has spent a century working to protect the countryside, which it describes as the place that provides our food, gives nature a home and serves as a vital tool in the fight against climate change. The photographs on display reflect the charity's key campaigns over those years, alongside the practical projects it delivers to improve landscapes, enhance nature and strengthen local places. It's a look at the work they've done across the decades, told through the lens of the competition entries.
The show is part of Storyhouse Futures, a week of events, shows, films and activities at Storyhouse dedicated to sustainability, so it sits within a wider run of things to see and do around the venue. If you're around Chester that week, it's one of several sustainability-focused events you can drop into.
