Hidden in the Kent countryside, the Big Cat Sanctuary is home to more than 45 wild cats, from 15 different species.

Focusing on the conservation of big and small cats facing challenges around the world, it aims to support the work of international conservation projects, as well as providing educational activities and awareness campaigns.

The sanctuary which helps contribute to the global breeding programme and provides sanctuary to cats who have retired from life in circuses and zoos, holds special events and its popular annual open days in the summer.

The KM's What's On supplement is giving you the chance to win a family ticket to one of the days this week - pick up your copy now.

They will be held from Thursday, July 20, to Sunday, July 23 and will include watching the cats in action, falconry displays, archery, face painting, arts and crafts, plus refreshments, a barbecue and ice cream.

The site also has a charity fundraising lunch on Sunday, May 28 with live music, face painting, a raffle and the chance to meet managing director and big cat specialist Giles Clark at the nearby London Beach Hotel in Ashford Road, Tenterden.
