Our work
From shaping planning decisions to restoring nature
We combine evidence-led campaigning with practical action — and we work with others because lasting change is always a team effort.
How we make a change
The challenges facing the Lake District are connected — from pressure on housing and infrastructure, to nature loss and climate impacts. Our work brings together campaigning, practical projects and influencing decision making to protect what people love about this place, and to keep it living, working and welcoming.

Campaigns
Whether it’s fairer housing, a visitor levy, or stopping an inappropriate development, we build a strong case for change where it’s needed – and make it easy for people to add their voice to ours.

Planning & policy work
We respond to planning applications and policy consultations, so decisions protect landscapes and communities.

Projects for nature
From conservation work on the land we look after to hedgerow planting, we turn good intentions into real, measurable improvements.

Inspiring others
We run events that help people connect with and care for the landscape, and mobilise people to work in partnership with us to protect and enhance these landscapes for generations to come.
