Over the last year, schools, community groups and town councils across Kent have been taking part in the Kent Wildlife Trust’s Wilder Kent Awards scheme.
As well as celebrating positive action taken to address the threats to the natural world, the scheme also promotes those schools and community groups that help connect adults and children with wildlife. In doing so it acknowledges the importance of nature in supporting mental health and wellbeing and the positive impacts that connecting with nature can have for people and communities.
A huge congratulations to all of this year's winners:
