However, all Wildlife Trusts share a common interest in wildlife and biodiversity, rooted in a practical tradition of land management and conservation. Almost all Wildlife Trusts are significant landowners, with many nature reserves. Collectively they are the third largest voluntary sector landowners in the UK. They often have extensive educational activities, and programmes of public events and education. The Wildlife Trusts centrally and locally also lobby for better protection of the UK's natural heritage, by becoming involved in planning matters and by national campaigning through the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Royal_Society_of_Wildlife_Trusts?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts">Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts</a>.

Kent Naturalists Trust was established in 1958 with SPNR being active in encouraging its formation. In the following year the SPNR established the County Naturalists' Committee, which organised the first national conference for Naturalists' Trusts at <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Skegness?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Skegness">Skegness</a> in 1960.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/The_Wildlife_Trusts?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> By 1964, the number of Trusts had increased to 36 and the Society for the Promotion of Nature Reserves had changed its name to The Society for the Promotion of Nature Conservation.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/The_Wildlife_Trusts?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In recognition of the movement's growing importance, its name was changed to The Royal Society for Nature Conservation in 1981.</p> <p>The movement continued to develop throughout the 1970s, and, by the early 1980s, most of today's Trusts had been established.

This was a watershed for the movement that strengthened its focus on wildlife and people.
