There are many beautiful corners in our county and the theme we would like to encourage is 'Tranquillity', reflecting the qualities described in our tranquillity survey, launched on October 23rd, 2006. More information about the CPRE tranquillity survey is available on the national CPRE website. Following the success of our pilot photographic competition in 2006 we would like to run this as a regular annual event. However, due to a shortage of manpower we're looking for volunteers to organise and run this facet of the Branch's activities. Please get in touch with us if this interests you.
