Our superficially unspoilt moorland areas are in reality under serious
political and economic threat. Heather moorland is a delicate balance, both
ecologically and economically, and by undue interference we risk destroying
the landscapes and environments we value so highly
Chief Executive, The Countryside Alliance, June 2002
 The Countryside Alliances moorlands campaign was set up in 2002, with
the support of the Uplands Appeal, to defend our unique moorland areas by promoting
understanding of the economic, social, landscape, and biodiversity benefits
of managed grouse moorland.
