00:02 - Hello and welcome to Kent on Climate live on KMTV.
00:19 I'm Sophia Akin and in this show,
00:21 we discuss all things related to environmental issues
00:23 in the county.
00:24 How's climate change impacting Kent?
00:27 What are communities in the county doing to tackle it
00:29 and how can you help at home?
00:31 Each week, we'll be taking a deep dive
00:32 into a new environmental issue in the county
00:35 and I'll be joined by expert guests.
00:37 In today's show, we're talking all about
00:39 World Rewilding Day and what's being done
00:41 to make the Garden of England more wild.
00:44 But first, a Medway community garden
00:46 is using a sustainable ethos to bring some of the five towns
00:50 most vulnerable people together.
00:52 The Otway Recycled Wild Garden Project
00:54 has been going for five years.
00:56 And in that time, it's helped people overcome
00:58 mental health issues and loneliness.
01:01 Run by the Sunlight Development Trust,
01:03 the project now wants to see more people getting involved.
01:06 Oliver Leeder de Sacks went down to Gillingham
01:08 to find out more.
01:10 - An ordinary street in Gillingham
01:11 hiding an extraordinary secret.
01:14 Three days a week, volunteers gather here
01:17 at the Otway Wild and Recycled Garden
01:20 to shape this urban slice of greenery.
01:23 Sustainability is the name of the game.
01:26 - We do save seeds from the previous year
01:28 and reuse those.
01:29 We reuse compost around the garden.
01:32 The ground you're standing on is tree bark.
01:37 So if any of us fall over,
01:38 we're gonna hopefully have a soft landing.
01:41 So we definitely reuse everything.
01:43 The lily pads came from a friend who has a pond,
01:47 had excess, so they came here.
01:49 And we kept the bucket as well and use that.
01:53 - As you can see over my shoulder,
01:54 volunteers are hard at work,
01:56 planting this year's produce.
01:58 Potatoes, carrots, cabbages, you name it,
02:02 they're growing it.
02:03 But it's not just about the produce here,
02:05 it's about the community.
02:07 - Somebody smarter than me once came to have a look
02:10 at the garden here and said,
02:13 "Oh, I see, you grow plants, but you nurture people."
02:16 And I know some people that come here
02:18 don't actually get out a lot apart from this is their day.
02:22 Some of the people that come here
02:24 might be depressed, for instance, to begin with.
02:28 So maybe we show them some of the small,
02:32 beautiful things that are all around.
02:34 Some of the buds on some of the flowers
02:37 are just drop dead gorgeous.
02:39 And sometimes it's good to just stop
02:41 and look at the small things in life.
02:44 And that can be a very positive thing.
02:48 - For some of the volunteers with complex needs,
02:51 this garden is everything.
02:54 - I live with a carer as well, and I've been in hospital.
02:57 So my carer told me to come and have a look.
03:00 So I did, you know.
03:01 They're all lovely, and I know them all.
03:03 Yeah, we're all family, so I think, you know.
03:08 - With spring beginning to blossom
03:09 and plenty of work to be done
03:11 before summer comes out to shine,
03:13 the group homes many in Medway
03:15 will pick up a trowel and get stuck in.
03:18 All the leaders of South reporting for KMTV.
03:21 (silence)
03:23 - Now, nearly £1,500 has been raised
03:30 to support the Rewilding Folks and Community project
03:33 to manage urban areas that have been left to go wild
03:35 by the local council.
03:37 The project aims to restore natural wildflower meadows
03:39 and creating new ones to help support bees
03:42 and pollinators in the area.
03:43 Organiser Rachel Stickles joins us in the studio now.
03:47 So thank you very much for joining us.
03:48 - Hello, how are you?
03:49 - Yeah, good, thank you.
03:50 How are you?
03:51 - Wonderful, thank you.
03:52 It's lovely to be on and share the inspiration with others.
03:55 - It's lovely to have you.
03:56 Thank you so much.
03:57 Well, let's start by talking about this project.
03:59 What's it all about?
04:00 - Wow, so I was very much inspired
04:02 by Folkestone's wildflower meadows,
04:04 which were often mowed,
04:07 and people weren't really recognising them as meadows
04:09 and only like layers of grass.
04:12 So I had to inspire the council not to mow such flowers.
04:17 Like you've got your daisies,
04:20 you've got your clovers.
04:22 So it's about protecting those and creating new ones,
04:26 which would be fabulous to do in Kent's
04:29 or Folkestone's bee kind areas,
04:31 which they've left to grow wild.
04:33 So we've raised money last year,
04:35 which was about 60 pound to buy two kilos
04:38 of wildflower seeds.
04:40 And then we're just up in the game this year.
04:43 So it'd be fabulous.
04:44 - I mean, it's quite incredible
04:45 that you kind of convinced the council to do this.
04:47 It's not, you know, people I'm sure try to get the council
04:50 to make changes all the time,
04:51 but it doesn't always happen.
04:52 What was that procedure like?
04:54 And it's Folkestone, which is a green council as well.
04:56 - Yeah, yeah, exactly.
04:57 - So tell us what that kind of procedure,
04:58 convincing them to do this was like.
04:59 - So I was often talking to the council before
05:02 in the environmental side.
05:04 One of the guys I would speak to,
05:06 we were talking about how we need to protect
05:09 these, like these verges.
05:11 And then as we've gone on in the project,
05:13 we very much said that we should work with the council.
05:17 So it's just about getting permission from them.
05:19 And they were very much agreed to it.
05:21 So we were able to manage these urban areas for wildlife.
05:26 - I bet you were pleased it all went to plan in the end.
05:28 - Yes, absolutely.
05:29 - Why is this so important?
05:30 Why did you really want this to happen?
05:32 - So as I started to learn about more flowers
05:35 and the wild side of it,
05:38 I learned that we only have 3%
05:41 of natural wildflower meadows left.
05:43 And that's quite scary
05:44 'cause each year we're losing so much wildlife
05:47 and endangered species like the honeybee.
05:50 But I just had to manage these areas
05:52 so we can bring back some of the 3% left
05:55 of wildflower meadows.
05:57 Which meadows have so much beneficial
06:00 for any species of pollinators.
06:02 So yeah, it's about protecting them really.
06:05 - We know how important pollination is for the planet.
06:08 And as you mentioned,
06:09 then sort of the fear of honeybees going extinct as well.
06:12 So I guess it's kind of about
06:13 what it's doing for the planet, isn't it?
06:15 - Absolutely, absolutely.
06:16 And it also helps with like floods.
06:19 So it helps like suck up water in the soil
06:22 and it creates a place where carbon can get trapped
06:27 in the soil as well.
06:28 So there's so many benefits to it,
06:29 which I think that's why we need to protect
06:31 also those roadside verges, which can be left.
06:36 I think if we could grow them,
06:37 we would also see wildflower meadows.
06:39 They sort of counsel sort of like mow it often.
06:44 So it's just about protecting more and making more
06:47 wildflower meadows.
06:48 - And how does it feel to know
06:49 that you kind of got that backing from the council
06:51 and the community?
06:52 How does that feel to have them behind you?
06:54 - It's amazing.
06:55 So when we raised the money on Space Hive,
06:58 we get pledges from the council.
07:00 So there was like 400 pounds from Kent County Council,
07:04 the NHS, and also our local council folks
07:07 and pledged 100 pounds, which supported the funding.
07:12 And yeah, so many people from our community group
07:16 donated money.
07:17 So it's really amazing, yeah, working with the council
07:19 and protecting what we have left of these areas.
07:23 - And I think you touched on it a little bit,
07:24 but where is this money that you've raised?
07:26 What's that gonna go towards?
07:27 - That's gonna go towards 100% pure native wildflower seeds
07:32 and also topsoil.
07:33 It's gonna go towards like a cultivator
07:36 and also projects within my charity that I work for,
07:39 United Response at the Community Network.
07:42 We're gonna create like exhibitions and workshops
07:45 so we can teach people about like,
07:47 you know, what the benefits are
07:48 and talk about the benefits of like knowing
07:51 about the Asian hornet.
07:52 So that's an exhibition we're gonna do
07:55 with the money raised.
07:56 So it'd be great.
07:57 - Yeah, you mentioned the Asian hornets.
08:00 There's been some sort of concerns and problems
08:02 raised around them, isn't it?
08:02 - Absolutely. - So what can you tell us
08:04 about kind of the impact that could have on Kent?
08:06 - So when I first spotted this Asian hornet in Folkestone,
08:11 I've had phone calls from the BBA, like DEFRA,
08:15 and it was so important.
08:16 They had to know where it was and what it were.
08:19 And if I was aware of what this species would do,
08:22 which can cause one Asian hornet can kill
08:27 50 honeybees a day.
08:28 So when you talk about that as like going in the distance,
08:31 that's a lot of honeybees like getting eaten
08:34 by this Asian hornet.
08:36 So it's about spreading awareness with our workshops
08:39 and working with other people like the Bounty Pest Control.
08:43 So yeah, it's a real importance.
08:46 - And you said these Asian hornets can eat 50 bees a day.
08:50 Why are they doing that in the first place?
08:51 - So I think it's about territory.
08:55 So they've come over here and they wanna build
08:57 a whole lot of nests and they're just very invasive.
09:00 They will kill other honeybees for like their feed
09:04 and to perhaps like, I don't wanna say steal nests
09:08 of some sort.
09:09 Yeah, they're very dangerous for our country
09:13 and our honeybees.
09:14 - So is that how much of a concern is that for us here
09:16 in Kent is-
09:17 - Super, super.
09:18 So a guy who works within the British Beekeepers Association
09:23 had a lot of his like honey pollinating places.
09:29 He had a lot of his things destroyed
09:34 within a couple of days of it being there.
09:36 So yeah, it was very much, we need to capture
09:38 and learn about this Asian species 'cause I wasn't aware.
09:41 So we need to make more people aware of how to trap them.
09:45 There's a guy who is supporting the community
09:48 with these jars.
09:50 So if you get hold of Bounty Pest Control,
09:52 he will be able to lend over these jars in this liquid
09:56 to help capture it.
09:57 So yeah, get in touch if you can with Bounty Hunters,
10:01 Bounty Pest Control.
10:03 - And yeah, absolutely.
10:04 So and rewilding more generally,
10:07 why is that kind of as a general concept
10:10 really important, would you say?
10:12 - So it's also just about protecting these areas
10:15 so that these wildflowers can come back.
10:17 Yeah, it's super important.
10:20 - Yeah, and we know the impact bees have
10:23 on the planet, I was saying before,
10:24 that we simply actually wouldn't be around without them,
10:27 kind of the pollination they do
10:29 and what that does for the planet.
10:30 So very important, isn't it?
10:32 - Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
10:34 - Yeah, and also, I mean, what's next for you?
10:37 You've convinced the council to do this thing.
10:39 Have you got any more kind of ventures coming up?
10:40 Anything else you want to do?
10:41 - So when we done our first project last year,
10:44 we done this at a park, which was Bee Kind,
10:46 dedicated to growing wild.
10:49 We'd like to expand on that
10:50 and also go to another place locally.
10:52 And yeah, it's just about creating these workshops
10:56 and supporting other places.
10:59 There's a folks in the hive planting seed swap.
11:01 So we are getting together with other people
11:04 within the community, just working together.
11:06 There's the incredible edible
11:08 that also came from the community network in Sheraton.
11:12 So it's all about just getting together
11:14 and doing the best we can to save the bees, really.
11:17 - Thank you so much for joining us
11:19 and talking to us about this.
11:20 I'm sure we'll hear from you again in the future.
11:21 Thank you so much, Rachel. - Yeah, no, absolutely.
11:22 Thank you, thank you.
11:24 - Well, just before we go to our break,
11:26 a heroic rescue in Dartford.
11:28 This goose had to be rescued
11:30 after getting her feet tangled in fishing wire.
11:32 Eleanor, named by the team at Dartford Animal Rescue,
11:35 was seen struggling at Brooklyn's Lake last month,
11:38 but it took three weeks for them to gain her trust.
11:40 Geese are known to be protective animals,
11:42 so the team bided their time
11:43 until rescuer Danny Rogers jumped in
11:46 and brought Eleanor to land.
11:47 It must have been so freezing that day,
11:49 but they were then able to cut her free
11:51 and she's back swimming freely.
11:52 Time for a break now.
11:54 I'll see you in a few minutes.

15:09 Hello and welcome back to Kent on Climate live on KMTV.
15:13 Now Kent's animal parks say more needs to be done
15:16 to save the world's critically endangered species
15:19 as they mark World Rewilding Day.
15:21 Animal charity, the Aspinall Foundation,
15:23 is working with Howlitz and Port Limb
15:25 to send more mammals back to the wild.
15:28 But it costs a lot of money and it takes a lot of time
15:31 to prepare the park's residents for rehoming.
15:33 Abbey Hook has been meeting some of those animals
15:36 destined for the wild.
15:38 (upbeat music)
15:40 From home to Howlitz and back home again.
15:46 Animals from each of these species
15:48 make up the hundreds taken back to the wild.
15:52 And it's down to Howlitz Wild Animal Park
15:55 and Port Limb Reserves partnership
15:57 with the Aspinall Foundation.
15:59 The charity runs conservation projects overseas
16:02 to protect endangered species
16:04 and return captive animals back to the wild.
16:07 And those ready to head back any day now
16:10 is the largest herd of elephants in the UK.
16:13 With elephants it's not been done like this ever before.
16:16 Because they're such like a big family unit and stuff,
16:19 you can't just break one off and send it on its own.
16:22 They need to go together, which is why it's such a huge thing.
16:25 'Cause we've got 13, we've got such a big herd.
16:27 It's a massive step to get them all together to go.
16:31 But I believe two planes is the plan at the minute
16:33 'cause there's too many to fit on one.
16:35 So they'll go onto the crates and then be loaded onto lorries,
16:38 driven to the airport and then onto the big planes.
16:41 And then, yeah, the flight to Kenya.
16:43 Tell me a bit more about the tusks.
16:45 So this one on the right has really short ones.
16:48 What's the difference between them?
16:50 So they use their tusks to wear down bark
16:53 and they use their tusks to dig.
16:55 So each individual elephant will have an individual tusk.
16:58 Also elephants are left and right-handed like us,
17:01 so they get left or right tusked.
17:03 Wow!
17:04 So if you look at Tammy, you can see that one of her tusks
17:07 is a lot shorter than the other tusk,
17:09 so that is her preferred tusk to use.
17:11 This is actually part of Tammy's tusk.
17:13 She's the bigger elephant there and the matriarch of the herd.
17:16 And this is what these guys are hunted for - ivory.
17:20 A lot of them are killed so that poachers can take this and sell it on.
17:24 Another threat to these mammals is habitat loss,
17:29 taking them onto farmland and resulting in human conflict.
17:32 The Aspinall Foundation hopes that by taking them to Kenya,
17:36 it will help more than just the herd.
17:39 These ones are well-known and well-loved by the people who visit the parks,
17:43 so they have a story behind them.
17:45 And once they're out in Kenya, people will relate to that story
17:49 and hopefully that will boost local tourism.
17:52 Kenya's got a lot of wild elephants, about 30,000,
17:56 so it's not going to necessarily save the species.
18:00 But the habitat we're sending them to is degraded
18:03 and by sending them there, we're investing in resources to protect it.
18:09 Someone thriving in their wild habitat is Joshie,
18:13 the Western lowland gorilla born in Kent and moved to the Congo three years ago.
18:19 Initially he was in a caged area, kind of like we have here,
18:23 and that is quite helpful for them, it gets them used to the sounds of Congo and Gabon
18:29 because obviously even things like the birds are different
18:32 and it can be a little bit scary for them.
18:34 Then once he was kind of seen as ready to move on to the next stage,
18:39 he was moved onto an island, which is where he is now.
18:42 The species is critically endangered, with 150,000 left in the wild.
18:47 Howlets have the largest collection of the species outside of Africa.
18:52 Nobody else has reintroduced gorillas, full stop, either of the species.
18:57 We've been doing it for 30 years now.
18:59 I went out to visit them a month ago and I saw two groups in the wild,
19:05 but they're descendants of the orphans that we reintroduced, and they're having babies.
19:11 Also rehomed in Africa, a group of painted dogs.
19:15 Back at Howlets, it was feeding time for their pack of four.
19:19 These are actually one of the most successful hunters?
19:22 Yeah, these are not the most successful hunters.
19:25 70, 80% or even 90% of their hunts are ending in success,
19:29 compared to some big cats, which can be 80% unsuccessful.
19:33 They also have a really interesting way of communicating as well,
19:36 some really high-pitched noises.
19:38 Yeah, you can hear those a little bit here.
19:40 It's like I say, proper high-pitched, proper communication.
19:43 When they're on a hunt, trying to work out what they're going to get,
19:46 they will just signal each other where to go in their circle and go to different areas,
19:50 so they've got the best chance of getting the animal involved.
19:54 It's estimated there's around 6,000 left in the wild,
19:58 but not every dog will be suitable for rewilding.
20:02 It is a very difficult animal to reintroduce.
20:06 We have sent some dogs to Gabon, where they had become extinct in the 1980s.
20:15 It's just not possible to find appropriate sites currently,
20:19 because they end up finding domestic cows, whatever, and killing them,
20:25 and that gets them into trouble.
20:27 It was a sort of test case for us, and we know it can be done.
20:31 But an animal being targeted by humans for the horns on their heads,
20:36 the eastern black rhino, once down to just 2,000 in the wild,
20:41 the species has been boosted by conservation efforts and numbers have tripled.
20:47 The worst threat that these guys are facing is poaching for their horns
20:51 as a traditional medicine or as a trophy element as well.
20:55 They may be pushing into an area of trouble with regards to bushmeat,
20:59 which would literally just be people killing them for their meat to eat.
21:04 It would be quite a desperate situation for a person to be in
21:09 to take them out for that reason.
21:12 It is mostly the horn that is their main problem right now.
21:16 So rewilding the critically endangered species to a protected reserve is key.
21:23 The three we sent to South Africa, and again it was a kind of captive,
21:27 well not a captive, but a big fenced reserve,
21:30 and they've had amazingly 60 offspring from those three,
21:35 doing our bit to bring their numbers back.
21:39 Increasing numbers of all endangered species is key for the Kent Parks,
21:44 but the charity says more needs to be done across the conservation industry
21:49 so that a day out for you and your family means a future for them.

21:59 And finally, to cap off our rewilding special,
22:02 we're talking to the most prominent rewilding project in Kent.
22:05 The Wilderbleen Project has introduced species such as bison back into the county
22:10 to restore the natural biodiversity of the landscape,
22:13 and they have big plans for the future.
22:15 Joining us now to tell us a little bit more about this
22:17 is the landscape manager for the project, Helen Pittman.
22:19 Helen, thank you so much for joining us today.
22:22 So I wanted to start off by talking to you a little bit
22:25 about the Wilderbleen Project as a whole.
22:27 If you could tell us a little bit about what it is and what it's achieved so far.
22:33 So we started off, as everyone knows, with our Bleen Bison Project.
22:38 So we have our bison herd in West Bleen and Thorndon Woods,
22:42 and that's an experiment to see whether we can use ecosystem engineer species
22:46 like the bison to manage our woodlands.
22:49 We're going to use the learnings from that project to expand across the whole landscape.
22:54 The Wilderbleen Complex is a huge area,
22:58 and we have the largest area of ancient woodland in southern England.
23:02 And so we want to see whether we can wild that area,
23:05 bring back some missing species, reconnect the landscape,
23:09 and make it a happier, healthier environment for everyone.
23:13 And I think you mentioned the bison. That's so memorable.
23:16 It received so much traction, didn't it?
23:18 But there's more to it than that, isn't there?
23:21 There's been an involvement with Iron Age pigs and Exmoor ponies and things like that.
23:26 So tell us about some of those other projects as well.
23:30 So missing from our landscapes at the moment are these grazing animals.
23:34 So we have introduced the Iron Age pigs, the Longhorn cattle, and the Exmoor ponies
23:40 as a comparison to see how they manage the woodlands compared to the bison.
23:44 So if you travel to West Bleen, you can come across some of these animals,
23:48 and we're going to look at whether we can extend that across some of the other reserves
23:52 across the Bleen landscape as well.
23:54 So we've got East Bleen, West Bleen, and we're working in partnership with RSPB
23:58 and the Woodland Trust as well.
24:00 And so grazers are really, really important for boosting that landscape,
24:04 for making it more diverse and more climate resilient.
24:07 And why is rewilding so vital for Kent's landscape?
24:11 We're talking about sort of rewilding day.
24:13 Why is it so important for us here in the Garden of England?
24:17 If you looked at a map of Kent, you'd see that we are quite lacking in natural spaces.
24:24 As I said, we have the largest area of ancient woodland in Kent,
24:29 and it's a really important area to maintain.
24:34 It's fragmented at the moment, which means we have these islands of natural spaces
24:38 scattered across the landscape.
24:40 And so we're looking at relinking some of those areas so that we can create
24:44 a lovely corridor of wilderness where species and people can thrive.
24:49 We're looking at those beautiful pictures of the bison at the moment.
24:52 It's incredible to have them here in Kent.
24:55 But I wanted to ask you what sort of areas is the project going to encompass
25:03 within Kent, but also, I guess, more widely too?
25:08 So if you look across the landscape,
25:11 Kent Wildlife Trust has a number of reserves across the county,
25:15 and we're working really hard to reboost those populations of species in those areas,
25:21 rewild them, as you say, by letting nature take the lead.
25:25 And we're really hoping that we can see some real strong biodiversity gains
25:29 in those areas, which will help build resilience to climate change,
25:33 but also provide lovely spaces for people to enjoy,
25:36 which increases our well-being as well.
25:38 And what's next for the project?
25:40 Can we expect any other sort of animals to come to our county soon?
25:46 Well, we are looking at that.
25:48 So obviously across the Blean Woodlands, we have a number of existing species
25:52 that need a bit of help.
25:53 We need to bolster the species that we already have.
25:56 For example, the heath fritillary butterfly,
25:58 which is an extremely rare butterfly,
26:00 but we have a great population across the Blean landscape.
26:03 And we will be looking at other species that we could introduce
26:07 into that landscape to help build resilience, more ecosystem engineers,
26:11 which do really great jobs of managing those natural spaces by themselves.
26:16 So yes, it's a bit of a watch this space scenario,
26:19 but we are looking at all of these sorts of things in partnership
26:22 with the local government and the community as well.
26:25 Thank you so much for joining us today, Helen.
26:27 And do let us know, I'm sure KMTV would love to come along
26:30 if there are any animals coming soon.
26:32 Thank you so much.
26:33 Any time. Thank you.
26:35 Well, that's all we've got time for on this week's episode of Kent on Climate.
26:38 We'll be back next week with another episode discussing more matters
26:41 relevant to environmental issues in the county.
26:44 If there's ever any other topics you want us to cover,
26:46 do get in touch and let us know.
26:48 But for me, that's all. I'll see you tomorrow. Good night.
