greening the gateway

A key aspect of the project is to transform the perceptions of North Kent dramatically, so it becomes widely acknowledged as a great place in which to live, learn, work, invest and relax.

As part of its overall mission to promote the sustainable regeneration of North Kent and Medway, Greening the Gateway Kent and Medway has a vision to:

“..achieve a radical transformation in the quality of the urban environment across North Kent, together with the conservation of adjacent high-quality countryside assets and improved access to them”

Adding Value to our vision

Greening the Gateway Kent and Medway has been established to help take forward this vision by exploiting its unique position by uniting existing environmental initiatives through a strategic approach to planning, targeting and implementing investment.

This much needed approach will generate a sufficient ‘critical environmental mass’ to achieve a dramatic transformation in the area’s image and support a positive climate for economic and social investment.
