2017 Social Media Round-Up

This year has been a very busy one for the Countryside Alliance. From launching our re-brand with our newly designed logo and our new 'My Countryside' magazine with its fresh design and look, to campaigning in the National Trust trail hunting ban, to launching our very own podcast channel and so much more! We can only really scratch the surface but we thought we would just share a selection of posts which help to define our 2017.


The Countryside Alliance supports the idea of a new industry body that could market game and enforce shoot standards https://t.co/TjzaQ2QQA7 pic.twitter.com/mXi5ajezu8
