Protecting our future

The quality of our environment has a direct impact on our wellbeing; a cleaner and pollution free environment is healthier, safer and far more pleasant. EPUK aims to improve the quality of life of all UK residents by working for a cleaner, healthier and more sustainable UK.

The knowledge and experience our members and partners have of environmental policy in practice gives us the basis for effective engagement with UK Governments and Administrations on the future direction and implementation of environmental policy. Our approach, based on evidence, works to produce more effective and sustainable policies, providing better environmental protection for all.
