What we do in Kent

We want to restore 30% of land and sea by 2030 through our Wilder Kent 2030 strategy

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.

Goal 2 - We inspire and collaborate

We cannot deliver #WilderKent 2030 on our own. To inspire others, we will increase our engagement with communities, businesses and stakeholders to reach a larger, more diverse range of people.

Goal 3 - We strengthen and grow

We will innovate through continual learning from national and international best practice, and create and share it. This will allow us to become a more resilient, demonstrably impactful and sustainable organisation.
