I care about these issues because, like most people, I have always sought peace and solace in nature. Whether it be walking through East Blean woods or enjoying the beaches in East Kent as a child, these are some of my most vivid childhood memories. As the years have progressed, I can see how developed our county is becoming which puts our natural environment at risk. An often overlooked fact is that so much of it is still so wonderfully preserved thanks to the Kent Wildlife Trust.
I am currently in the process of raising the £1600 sponsorship for this charity bike ride and I hope that supporters of Kent Wildlife Trust can help me with this daunting task! So far I have raised £80 so I still have a long way to go and your donations will help me towards this goal.
The wellbeing of our wildlife is inherently linked with our own and in prioritising our wildlife, the Kent Wildlife Trust is vital in these times to ensure it’s enjoyment for our future, and that of future generations.
Thank you in advance for your donations!
