Have you heard an extra harmony in the dawn chorus recently? You might be hearing the passerines (songbirds) that have been migrating north to breed after spending the winter feeding in warmer climates.

Chalk streams are among the most precious and rare freshwater ecosystems on Earth, which we are so lucky to enjoy across Kent. They are characterised by their crystal-clear, mineral-rich waters, filtered through ancient chalk bedrock, which support a unique array of wildlife. Despite their global rarity and ecological value, these rivers are still not recognised as irreplaceable habitats within planning policy.

Kent Wildlife Trust, alongside other regional Wildlife Trusts and The Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts, as part of the Save Our Chalk Streams Movement, have issued an urgent open letter to the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, Steve Reed.
