Friends of the Earth England, Wales and Northern Ireland is a grassroots environmental campaigning community. We campaign for change at both a local and national level and are dedicated to the protection of the natural world and the wellbeing of everyone in it.

To help us demand the change needed, we’re asking more people to be part of the conversation. Now more than ever we need you to stand with us. Our newly established Friends of the Future circle is a group of passionate, like-minded donors, committed to protecting people and planet, who will help us take on the challenges that lie ahead.

The climate and ecological breakdowns are urgent threats that are worsening by the day

The effects are being felt closer to people’s lives and it is those who did the least to cause the emergency who are experiencing the most adverse impacts. Every year, floods, heatwaves, and relentless wildfires devastate communities across the world.

However, even with the evidence right in front of them, governments and multinational companies refuse to take the vital action needed. We know there is still hope, but the coming years are critical if we’re to avoid catastrophe.

We cannot delay.

We have the solutions for real change

Without radical change this decade, we know that injustice and inequality will be exacerbated by the growing climate and ecological crises.

Therefore, more than ever, social justice is going to be at the heart of our work as we ensure that the response to these breakdowns puts the most affected first.

By doing this, we’ll guarantee a better future for everyone.

We’re in a unique position to have an impact

We’re a movement of committed and talented campaigners, lawyers, activists, supporters, trustees, staff and volunteers.

We have over 400,000 supporters who help us pressure the government to act, raise awareness of important issues, and fund campaigns to create a healthier planet for us all. And our incredible grassroots network, made up of nearly 400 community groups, runs campaigns, takes practical action, and works with councils to make a difference at a local level.

We’re also part of an international community, bringing together more than 2 million people in 75 countries. We combine people power all over the world to transform local actions into global impact.
