The Kent County Agricultural Society organises the annual Kent County Show and supports a range of education initiatives used to promote the land based sector. As part of our wider charitable objectives, we have introduced a scholarship scheme for Kent based students studying for a degree in the UK. The Kent County Agricultural Society set up the scholarship scheme to help fund three students through their degree courses each year. The Society looks forward to working with these individuals in developing a pro-active group of youth ambassadors over the next few years.
