The Campaign for the Protection of Rural Wales (CPRW) (Welsh: Ymgyrch Diogelu Cymru Wledig (YDCW)), originally named the Council for the Preservation of Rural Wales, is a charity in Wales that aims to secure the protection and enhancement of the country's landscapes and environment.
It was founded in 1928. The name was changed to the Council for the Protection of Rural Wales in 1962, and then to the Campaign for the Protection of Rural Wales in 1991.[2] Past presidents have included Megan Lloyd George (1949-1965), Wynford Vaughan Thomas (1968-1972) and Baroness Eirene White (1973-1989).[2] Clough Williams-Ellis was the Chairman of CPRW from 1929 to 1946 and the President from 1946–48. The organisation's offices are in Welshpool.[1]
