Goal 1 - We defend and restore
We'll continue to develop nature-based land management practices, while giving wildlife a voice through our campaigns and communications.
Action and Innovation for nature
Nature is in crisis. We must take bold action to restore and protect our wildlife and wild spaces for future generations. Will you help?
Kent Wildlife Trust is the county’s leading conservation charity, driving innovation to fight the climate and nature crises. We have over 32,000 members and volunteers, manage over 9,000 acres of land and influence much more. Together with our partners, supporters and grazing animals, we transform habitats, restore and protect species and bring ecosystems back to life across the county and beyond, to benefit wildlife and people.

Within the landscape around Lamberhurst, Furnace Farm and Scotney Castle stand out as two areas where Kent Wildlife Trust (KWT) is making a real difference. Furnace Farm is a former intensively managed farm, now moving toward a haven for wildlife and the grounds of Scotney Castle are managed by KWT using some of our cattle. This joined up landscape approach is hugely important for wildlife, offering corridors and refuges in a landscape that isn’t always favourable. Now there is an incredible opportunity to expand this landscape even further.
