Kent Wildlife Trust covers the county of Kent, and some parts of London in England, and is one of the largest of the 47 Wildlife Trust organisations in the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man and Alderney. Kent Wildlife Trust has over 31,000 members in total.
Founded in 1958, Kent Wildlife Trust is the leading conservation charity for Kent and Medway, with the purpose of protecting wildlife, educating the public, influencing decision makers and restoring habitats. The Trust manages reserves that include a range of habitats of extraordinary beauty that accommodate much endangered wildlife. The Trust manages over 65 nature reserves covering more than 8,000 acres of land for wildlife, including over 55 miles of roadside nature reserve.
Kent Wildlife Trust has been steeped in controversy, due to the election of Mike Bax as Chairman in 2014. Bax had been Master and Huntsman for the Blean Beagles, from 1971, until at least 2005 and runs a pheasant shoot on his land .
(Some reserves have limited access.)
