Welcome to the Irish Peatland Conservation Council (IPCC)
Our mission is to protect a representative sample of peatlands of Ireland for people to enjoy today and into the future.
We hope our website will help you to get to know us better. It’s your gateway to the save the bogs campaign and to visitors to the Bog of Allen Nature Centre. The IPCC is a registered charity (Revenue Number CHY6829 and Charities Regulator Number 20013547) and a non-governmental organisation. With six nature reserves and the Bog of Allen Nature Centre, we are actively involved in restoring peatland habitats, protecting wildlife, and educating the public. Learn about why our peatlands are so important and discover how you can help in their preservation.
