Kent law firm Martin Tolhurst Solicitors has announced a new partnership with Kent Wildlife Trust, a respected wildlife charity dedicated to preserving the county’s natural heritage.
The collaboration, effective 1 April 2024, builds upon Martin Tolhurst Solicitors’ existing green initiatives.
Previously, the firm partnered with More Trees to plant trees for clients buying or selling homes, offsetting the carbon footprint associated with the moving process. Now, by joining forces with Kent Wildlife Trust, they aim to make an even greater positive impact.
Andrew Ashley-Edwards, partner at Martin Tolhurst Solicitors, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Kent Wildlife Trust. Their dedication to restoring wildlife and protecting Kent’s natural environment aligns perfectly with our values.
“This partnership allows us to further our commitment to sustainability while supporting a vital local organisation.”
The collaboration offers multiple benefits:
- Supporting conservation efforts: Martin Tolhurst Solicitors will contribute to Kent Wildlife Trust’s crucial conservation work, ensuring the health and wellbeing of the county’s diverse ecosystems, with a particular focus on four key reserves: Ashford (Conningbrook Lakes), Gillingham (Darland Banks), Longfield (Heather Corrie Vale, Darenth Valley) and Sittingbourne (Queendown Warren)
- Employee volunteering: The firm’s staff will have exciting opportunities to volunteer at Kent Wildlife Trust reserves, fostering team building and a deeper connection to the environment.
- Client choice and donations: Clients can choose to donate to one of four local Kent Wildlife Trust reserves located near Martin Tolhurst Solicitors’ offices in Ashford, Gillingham, Longfield and Sittingbourne. This empowers clients to directly support a cause they care about.
Paul Jobling, membership and partnership manager of Kent Wildlife Trust, said: “We are delighted to welcome Martin Tolhurst Solicitors as a partner.
“Their commitment to sustainability and focus on engaging their staff and clients in conservation efforts will be invaluable in achieving our shared goals for a healthier planet.”
