Perring was head of the national Biological Records Centre based at Monks Wood from 1964 to 1978. In the late 1970s he was instrumental in initiating the move towards the creation of smaller, more regional biological records centres across the UK. He also played a key role in the development of the modern Wildlife Trust movement.
