We protect wildlife
Nature is in trouble and it needs our help. Together with our members, supporters, volunteers and partners, we work to protect wildlife across the county.
We look after wild spaces
Kent Wildlife Trust manages over 65 species-rich nature reserves around the county, as well as local wildlife sites and roadside nature reserves. We also work with communities and other organisations to assist in the management of other wild sites in Kent.

We connect people with nature
We bring people closer to nature, from all walks of life and of all ages. Through our projects, events, education programmes and activities we teach people the value of wildlife to our world and to their well being and show them how to care for it.
We campaign for wildlife
We raise awareness about issues affecting wildlife and invite the public to work with us to make positive changes.
We advise and teach others
We provide ecological consultancy, education and other professional services to local authorities, businesses, schools and individuals.
You too can be part of our work to help nature.
