Guy Shrubsole

Guy Shrubsole is a British researcher, writer and campaigner. He wrote Who Owns England?: How We Lost Our Green and Pleasant Land, and How to Take It Back,[1] and, most recently, The Lost Rainforests of Britain.[2]

Life edit

Shrubsole was born in Newbury, Berkshire[3] and attended St Bartholomew's School.[4]

Work edit

Shrubsole researched who owns the land in England for his first book.[5] In August 2020, Shrubsole and Nick Hayes launched a campaign on freedom to roam in England, called Right to Roam.[6] In July 2021 he and Hayes collaborated with Landscapes of Freedom and David Bangs to organise a mass trespass on the Sussex Downs to raise awareness of the failings of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000, which Shrubsole criticises for its limitations.[7][8]

He used to work as Policy and Campaigns Coordinator at Rewilding Britain.[9]

Shrubsole's Lost Rainforests of Britain campaign attempts to find, map, photograph, and restore the Atlantic Oakwood forests, woodlands variously referred to in Britain as Upland Oakwoods, Atlantic Oakwoods, Western Oakwoods, Temperate Rainforest, Caledonian forest, and colloquially as Celtic Rainforests.[10] His book on the subject was shortlisted for the Richard Jefferies Society Literary Prize[11] and longlisted for the James Cropper Wainwright Prize for Writing on Conservation.[12]

Shrubsole is set to publish a third book with William Collins.[13]
