| Kent Wildlife Trust manages over 7,500 acres of precious wildlife habitat. Year round management of this land is essential to the survival of many thousands of endangered plants and animals – all of which require our steadfast stewardship. The Trust is entirely reliant on the generosity of its members, supporters and funders to carry out its work for wildlife. This section provides an overview of present Kent Wildlife Trust Appeals.

Queendown Warren Special Reserve Lamb
We would like to know what you think of our idea to sell lamb and mutton from the sheep we use to graze our reserves.

Spuckles Wood
£110,000 needed to restore and extend vital new land under the Trust’s management - ancient woodland and chalk grassland in the mid-Kent Downs.

Nashenden Down
A great deal of restoration work will be needed at Nashenden Down, near Rochester in Medway, to return it to species-rich chalk grassland. Your support will help to provide a habitat, not only for you to visit and enjoy, but for future generations too.

Hothfield Common
Hothfield heathlands is one of the last remaining fragments of open heath. It has the last four remaining valley bogs left in the county. With your support, we can restore more land to open heath for the benefit of wildlife.

Brenchley Woods
Brenchley is an ancient woodland made up of alder near the stream to large majestic beech and oak trees on the higher ground. There is also an important area of heathland (a very scarce habitat in Kent).
