South Bedfordshire Friends of the Earth is a friendly, informal and practical voluntary group based in Leighton Buzzard. We work in partnership with national Friends of the Earth and are part of their network of local groups.
We campaign on many issues relevant to the town and the surrounding area, including climate change, biodiversity, transport, air quality and recycling. You can read more detail about the environmental issues we face on Friends of the Earth’s policy website.
We rely on our local member volunteers to stand up for these environmental issues, and are funded by memberships and donations. We welcome new members to join us and volunteer to protect people and planet locally with wildlife conservation, habitation creation, lobbying and campaigning.
Join us in campaigning for a greener future
