Supporter
From funding new research and fieldwork to maintaining archives and sharing discoveries with the public, every donation directly supports the ongoing effort to understand, protect, and communicate Kent’s rich past.
What your support enables
Your donation helps the Society to:
Preserve and care for historic records, collections, and archaeological material
Support research, excavation, and publication of new discoveries
Maintain and expand access to archives, resources, and knowledge
Deliver lectures, events, and educational initiatives across Kent
In doing so, you help ensure that Kent’s heritage is not only protected, but actively explored and shared.
While membership connects you directly to the Society’s work and community, donations provide an additional way to support and strengthen that work—at any level.
Leave a lasting contribution to Kent’s history
Leaving a legacy to the Kent Archaeological Society (Registered Charity 1176989) is a meaningful way to help protect Kent’s archaeological heritage for future generations.
A gift in your will—of any size—supports long-term research, the conservation of historic sites, and the preservation of our archives and collections. It ensures that the work of understanding and sharing Kent’s past continues well beyond the present.
Legacy donations are straightforward to arrange and can often be added as a short clause when updating an existing will. Many supporters choose to leave either:
a residuary gift (a percentage of their estate), or
a pecuniary gift (a fixed sum)
Both make a lasting and valuable contribution to the Society’s charitable work.
If you are considering remembering the Society in your will, we recommend speaking with your solicitor to ensure your wishes are recorded clearly.
We are deeply grateful to all those who choose to support the Society in this enduring and impactful way.
