Wilder Kent Award

Westerham Town Council are proud to announce that we have won silver at the 2023 Wilder Kent Awards for our hard work in helping to create a Wilder Kent.

Council has made a submission for 2025 and await the outcome.

The Wilder Kent Awards were set up by Kent Wildlife Trust in 2020 as a way of recognising and rewarding the positive actions that groups across Kent are taking in order to protect wildlife and safeguard nature for future generations.

Now in its 3^rd year, 2023 saw the Wilder Kent Awards gain over 65 entries from groups and organisations across the county and Westerham Town Council are proud to be part of a growing army in the fight against the nature and climate crisis. The award recognises the positive action we’re taking to restore nature and how we’re encouraging people to reconnect with it. Click here to read our Wilder Kent Awards 2023 WTC submission
