Make a difference in Kent

 

 

Join Kent Wildlife Trust

Join us to create & protect your Wilder Kent. We can’t do it without you.

Our vision is a wildlife-abundant Kent, where nature is in recovery and recognised as being vital to human life across 30% of land and sea by 2030. Wild areas are disappearing. Nature is in crisis and the climate emergency is impacting not only our precious wildlife but also our health, communities and families. 

We must act now to drive local action for global change, but we can’t do it alone.

Your membership comes with HUGE rewards: 

Protect the wild areas dear to your heart 

We have over 90 nature reserves and sites across Kent for you to explore and discover the local wildlife you love. Our members contributions are vital in our work to protect, maintain and develop these. 

You are giving wildlife a voice 

As a collective group, our members can speak as one voice. This means we are consulted as a representative body regarding important wildlife matters at top tables, both locally and nationally. 

 

You can make your mark on Kent 

As a member led organisation, our members are at the core of everything we do. You can have a say in how the charity is run, vote at our AGM or become a Trustee yourself. 

You will learn a lot 

With features from our resident expert conservationists, regular e-bulletins & newsletter updates on our work and our member exclusive “Wilder Kent” magazine 4 times a year, you are up to date on the state of Kent’s nature. 

 

You may find your new Wilder tribe 

We are a community of likeminded wildlife enthusiasts. Through volunteering opportunities, events & our online communities, you can meet new people and share your passions 

You will pass on the joys of nature to the next generation 

Our important work protects wildlife, families and communities for future generations. With family memberships, you are sharing this passion and enjoyment with a new generation of wildlife lovers.
