kmfm's Project Kent is back for 2019 and nominations are now open

Is there a building or community space where you live that needs a bit of TLC? kmfm is here to help.

Kent's radio station has joined forces with Kent Reliance for this year's Project Kent and have a team of volunteers on standby.

It could be a local Scout hut garden that needs a revamp or a community hall requiring a lick of paint - all they need to know is what special project in the county needs some love and attention.

See how last year's Project Kent transformed the Young Lives Foundation office in Maidstone

Last year's chosen project was Kent Lives Foundation who wanted to transform their head office in Maidstone to create an atmosphere that was inviting to young people from across the county using their services.

After a week of sanding, washing, glossing and painting the Project Kent team managed to convert the plain offices into a vibrant and friendly space.

Stephen Gray, CEO of Young Lives Foundation, said: "The difference Project Kent has made to our Maidstone hub is clear to see.

"The rooms look bright, fresh and an area all can be proud of. Our staff, volunteers and more importantly the young people can now work in a vibrant environment which matches YLF’s ethos and style."
