The Irish Peatland Conservation Council (Comhairle Chaomhnaithe Phortaigh na hÉireann) is an independent conservation charity.
We were established in 1982 to campaign for the conservation of a representative sample of living intact Irish bogs and peatlands as part of Ireland’s heritage.
We believe that Ireland’s remaining peatlands should be treated as a precious resource that cannot be replaced, and that a representative sample should therefore be protected.
Our activities include education and publicity, promoting environmental awareness, provision of information and encouraging the protection and conservation of our national heritage for the common good.
We own and manage a number of peatlands for conservation and we run the Bog of Allen Nature Centre in Co. Kildare which is open to visitors and school groups.
The Irish Peatland Conservation Council is a company limited by guarantee, with charitable status. |
