Submissions are invited for Kent Wildlife Trust Photography Competition 2023. The last date of submission is September 20, 2023.

About the Trust

Kent Wildlife Trust is United Kingdom’s leading conservation charity. They have over 32,000 members and over 1000 registered volunteers.

Competition Details

Conservation is often not an inclusive environment for women, people of colour, young people and members of the LGBTQ+ community. They encourage participants from all backgrounds and communities to take part in this challenge. Kent understands that not everyone has the income available to spend on often expensive photography equipment and software, therefore they look forward to seeing all entries, from beginners with smartphone cameras to experienced and keen photographers, both in rural and urban areas. The beauty of nature is in it’s diversity, and they want to capture that.
