The East Kent Beaver Advisory Group (EKBAG) was established by a partnership of organisations to oversee responses to the activity of wild beavers living within catchments in the East Kent area. The group has been formed so that stakeholder groups with an interest in the wild beaver population can be represented in the decisions made about how the beavers are monitored and responses given to beaver activity.
The full Beaver Advisory Group will be convened for an annual forum of local interested people and organisations to represent the interests of the people that live and work in, and visit, East Kent. If you need any further information or support in the meantime then please don’t hesitate to get in contact.
Respect the open water environment and its ecological importance. Check your equipment is clean, dry and free from invasive plants or animals when visiting new sites. We would recommend using the biosecurity procedures outlined in the Check Clean Dry campaign. Be mindful of the impact your activities might have on the aquatic ecosystem and aim to work in a way that preserves the natural balance, protecting these vital water sources and their inhabitants for future generations.
This website has been designed to support communities and land managers living alongside beavers in Britain. It is also a useful source of relevant information on Beaver Advisory/Management Groups in river catchments where wild beavers are becoming established. It has been designed by Devon Wildlife Trust and Beaver Trust.
