The Kent Wildlife Trust Group is Wild About Inclusion. To us, this means inspiring, empowering and engaging people from all
backgrounds, cultures, identities and abilities, to change the natural world for the better. It also means cultivating inclusive
workspaces that are free from discrimination, where differences are celebrated, everyone can be themselves and flourish, just like
nature!
