Appendix 3.1 – Kent and Medway priority species bespoke measures

The non-statutory guidance on priority species for a Local Nature Recovery Strategy recommends that only species that require bespoke measures
are identified and that these bespoke measures are presented alongside the relevant species. However, acknowledging that many of the habitat
measures designed for the benefit of a priority species offer wider benefits to other species of that habitat assemblage, it was determined that these
should be embedded into the habitat potential measures.

Consequently, a number of the Kent and Medway priority species, while meeting the criteria as a priority, seemingly do not have dedicated
potential measures. These are noted in this chapter as priority species requiring broad habitat measures, and the relevant habitat priority is
identified alongside them.

Where a species requires a bespoke measure that will only benefit that particular species, this is noted as priority species requiring bespoke measures.

This appendix lists these bespoke measures for the priority species.
