PARTNER GROUPS
We work closely with a number of allied, 'supporting' and 'supported' groups with whom we meet regularly and who share intersecting interests in improving the environment in which we live. We are also regularly invited to give talks and run information stalls with partner groups, and/or at related events. See our main blog, and recent events highlighted below, for further details.

SUPPORTING GROUPS
We are proud to be supported by the following national and local allied groups with which we work closely on overlapping agendas through dialogue and sharing of resources and information.

PAN-UK PESTICIDE-FREE TOWNS
PAN UK Pesticide-Free Towns focuses on non-agricultural pesticide use in towns and offers support to regional campaigning groups trying to get pesticides eliminated from their urban spaces. It also runs related a pesticide-free Schools Campaign and a Supermarket campaign. See here for a list of active campaigns and for details of the wonderful work that's going on by individual groups.
PAN-UK works to apply pressure on governments, regulators, policy makers, industry and retailers to reduce the impacts of harmful pesticides to both human health and the environment.
Pesticide-Free Cambridge joined forces with PAN-UK Pesticide-Free Towns movement in 2019 and benefit hugely from their expertise and advice, as well as through interaction with other pesticide-free campaigns that their platform enables.
