Conservation is our mission
Kent Wildlife Trust carries out a host of conservation activities across the county with the help of volunteers and the support of members. We look after some of Kent's most iconic landscapes and protect and restore key habitats and species.
Helping landowners for wildlife
Kent Wildlife Trust works with local authorities, statutory agencies, landowners and other local partners to identify, manage and monitor highly valuable wildlife habitats as part of our Local Wildlife Sites programme. Local Wildlife Sites are often privately owned and so rely on our advice and support and the commitment of the landowners, farmers and volunteers who are prepared to carry out sensitive habitat management.
More than a drive-by approach
Roadside Nature Reserves can link existing wildlife areas, helping to reconnect and restore landscape so that wildlife is no longer struggling to survive in isolation. This supports a living landscape, which benefits both people and wildlife and makes nature more resilient to future change.
